Nov 15, 2009 Bomber. Pours extremely dark, almost black in fact, with hints of light poking through the mahogany colored outer edges. A tall head of light brown froth is quick to settle to a thin, lasting blanket, while wet, jagged flares of lacing jut upwards onto the glass. The nose is a bit drier than expected, showing a base of cocoa powder, caramelized sugar, and evaporated milk, with a soft overtone of vanilla-steeped bourbon and subtle oak. Hints of coffee roast lend a bit of balance to the sweetness. Flavors aren’t as well defined, with the cocoa-caramel and milky lactose seeming just a little muddled and incohesive, perhaps clouded by the woody bourbon and vanilla. Still, it’s a relatively tasty brew. The palate is soft and creamy, but lacking in substance. A dry, lactic chalkiness comes through after the finish, lingering along with the bourbon flavor. Solid, but not great.
