Dec 3, 2009 Bomber 2007 vintage poured a clear tarnished copper with a lasting amber head. Aromas of bourbon, carmel, vanilla, oak, prune, toffee and spice. Palate was medium bodied and smooth. Flavors of bourbon, vanilla, oak, toffee, dark fruit and light spice with a smooth lingering bourbon finish. Pretty tasty stuff, I look forward to seeing how this one ages.

Nov 17, 2009 2007 Bottle - thanks to Toby. Pours a dark amber color with a finger of creamy beige head. Nose is bourbon based with malty and faded hop notes. Pretty much identical into the taste. Rather smooth and syrupy. Good.

Nov 7, 2009 22 oz. bottle from kp. Pours a deep amber color with a small ecru colored head (I have been waiting to use ecru). The aroma was big caramel malty goodness with vanilla, bourbon and oak. The flavor again was heavily malted, sweet, caramel, bourbon was well integrated, vanilla, smooth, some bitterness. I certainly think this is better than the ratings would indicate.

Nov 5, 2009 Bottle sample at Knoxville Brewers Jam 2009.
Poured a hazy dark brown color with a minimal frothy off-white head that was mostly lasted and good lacing. Moderate to heavy toasted sweet, woody and whiskey aroma. Medium to full body with a smooth texture and flat carbonation. Medium to heavy toasted sweet malt and bourbon flavor with a medium to heavy sweet finish of moderate to long duration.
This is a standout brew.

Oct 22, 2009 Bottle Pours out a mahogany topped with a sand head. Aroma was of sweet malts, bourbon, oak, vanilla, and some heat. Taste was nice not over the top on the bourbon side. Plenty of the oak and sweetness to balance it out.
