Jul 13, 2007 22 oz bomber thanks to a trade with drewbeerme. Pours a clear dark ruby with a thick beige head. Nose is malty and fruity. Lots of red ripe fruit grapes, citrus, a little brown sugar. Sweet flavors to go with the nose all of that red ripe fruit bursting with a hint of licorice but no bitterness to balance out that sweetness. Pretty tasty none the less.

May 24, 2009 NIce dark caramel brown with a lovely fluffy head. This beer looks extremely good. I am very impressed. Picked this one up at Five Points Bottle Shop in Athens, Georgia. Aromatic alcohol malt aroma, with a nice sweet malt aroma. Very sweet taste as well. Not very hoppy at the beginning but then it develops into a hoppy taste, but not a very hoppy taste. This isn’t a "mean" barley wine. It doesn’t have that hoppy taste I was hoping for. Overall, the malts are awesome, and the aroma is awesome as well, but the hops are lacking. Pretty good brew.

Jun 9, 2008 Bottle shared with Ian. Pours a reddish brown with a thick tan head. Big beautiful aroma of citrusy hops and malty caramel. Taste is thick and hoppy, very big malt profile, but not over the top. I don’t know how aged the bottle was, but there was a subtlety of the hops and malt that was very nice.

Mar 28, 2008 2007 vintage, aged about 10 months. Pours a lightly hazy, reddish-brown color. A small, bubbly, cream colored head leaves scattered spots and snakes of lacing. The nose shows dark, rich caramel, raisons, and earthy, peppery hops. Citrus and other fruits sweeten the nose further. In the mouth, lively carbonation and hot, peppery hops burn slightly, but not too bad. Sweet caramel, brown sugar, and dark, sweet fruits do well to balance things out, but this brew definitely leans towards the hoppy side for a barley wine. Solid brew.

Aug 7, 2009 Bomber from Wine Merchant Findlay, OH. Pours opaque caramel brown with an off-white head. Nose is caramel, booze, sugar, and citrus with slightly piney hops. Flavor is lots of caramel up front smoothing the way for the hop bouquet coming through. Those fade and then the caramel and booze come and leave their impression. Hops kill softly, not like a battering ram. Very smooth, medium-bodied barley wine with lingering caramel and hops.
