IrishBoy (2243), Bakersfield, California, USA Jul 13, 2008 Bomber shared by Odeed; Nose of vanilla oakiness, light spiciness, and an off vegtal note; hazy brown with a small tan head; flavor was lightly bitter, vanilla, wood, dark fruit, but finished with the odd vegtal note that made it disappointing.
cmillward (270), Orlando, Florida, USA Dec 30, 2008 Bomber. Pours a chestnut body with an off-white fuzzy head, some slight lacing. On the nose, banana bread, rich, fruity, yeasty, some candi sugar, quite bready. Tastes of sugary fruit. bread, a touch of acidity, alcohol peeks through as it warms. It feels light in the mouth, drinkable, a little prickly from the acidity. Quite impressed with this phenolic Ohio-brewed take on a quad.

Aroma of mellow depth quality noted. 8- Flavor/Palate: murky palate , mudded old coffee feel , sedimental accents with plum touch. Alcohol at edges. Slightly metallic at finish. Unfortunately aroma did not translate fully into flavor. DougShoemaker (2680), Toronto, Canada Dec 12, 2008 Winter Welcome Toronto.
Aroma is a sweet mellow pitfruit and malt, cloudy brown, trace of red at the side, tiny toffee head. Flavour is pifruit, heavy on the black cherry side. Medium bodied, very smooth, easy drinking. Great stuff. Thank You Sammy. CharlesDarwin (1501), State College, Pennsylvania, USA Dec 9, 2008 22oz Bottle. Juicy red and musty cellar character. Light malt. Some interesting vinous
character. Pours a very dark clear reddish-purple, with a cloak in off-white.
Flavor is a fairly standard light belgian spice and esters. Good body and bright.
Very nice middle-red fruits. It’s overly complex or dynamic, but it’s decent. Nice
malt character, fruity blossom, and great balanced dryness and alcohol. Enjoyable
Belgian beer and not oppressive as a big beer. travita (908), Lewisville, Texas, USA Dec 9, 2008 Bottle thanks to bu11zeye. Smell is sweet, raisans, malts, sugar, alcohol, and caramel. Looks is light brown and clear with not too much head. Taste is sweet, nuts, malts, slightly dessert like.
