| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 8/20 | Jul 4, 2009 Bomber. Clear orange amber with a dense white head. Big caramel nose, thick sweet malt, maple and toffee. The wheat emerges a bit in the flavor, but it’s boozy, hot and not real tasty, frankly. How can a beer have such a pleasant nose and taste so nasty? BrewDad (2378), Olympia, Washington, USA
