Jan 18, 2009 Reunion ’08 looks great but tastes opposite of what it appears to be. There is not distinct smell and the taste and palate are below my tasting standards.

Jan 18, 2009 Pours a nice ruby red with lasting cream top. Aroma of sugar and sweet malt along with some rye and hops. Flavor is seemingly off. Very bready in a bad way. I think something might be wrong with this. No real rye flavor.

Jan 5, 2009 Slightly hazy orange-brown body, coppery, thin to medium buff head. Spicy, citrusy, herbal nose with toast and light berry-like sweetness. Caramely and bready. Hints of licorice. Medicinal body, herbal and earthy, with brown sugar, caramel, and toast malt notes. Subtle rye. Too much like sugar water with hops for my tastes.

Dec 27, 2008 2008 YeHA: Bronze hue with a small head. The aroma has notes of caramel, caraway seed, rye, roasted malt and a hint of peat. The taste is sweet and malty with a bit of honey like twang. Rye and spice upon the finish. The mouth feel is soft and dry. Starts good but ends up flabby and uninspired.

Dec 21, 2008 20081221 Bomber from Abes. Ruby brown color with small beige head. Aroma doughy and nice rye spiciness plus light notes of dark caramel. A bit thinner than I expected but matches the overall mild approach of this somewhat big beer. Toasty with a sharp rye bite and grassy bitterness. Some light cocoa and tobacco. Tasty stuff, though not at all what I expected.

Dec 16, 2008 22oz bottle. Copper pour very clear with a small head. Very malty aroma with a hard to place aroma that you just have to guess is caraway. It’s a bit nutty as well. The flavor is malt mixed with many strange adjuncts. Carob comes to mind and I suppose that’s caraway. Its tough to pull out individual flavors as what ever they have done has modified the malt flavors but is very complimentary. Full body a bit creamy and round mouth feel. This is pretty good but the strange value would overpower you if you drank this regularly or in quantity.
