Bomber from Bert's Growler Garage. Not as "dirty" or earthy as others in this style, picking up more sweetness. Also realized it's well past its shelf life (ex. 11.29.14, thank you Pelican for dating your beers!), but its held up very well. Will have to try again fresh. Caramel and some toffee, light bodied.

22oz. Bomber
Poured into a DFH glass a nice cloudy amber color, very nice carbonation, with a nice one-finger creamy off-white head, leaves some nice sticky lacing behind. The nose is mostly malty, very slight hop note. The taste is slightly sweet, and malty. Medium body. Overall a tasty brew and is a good thirst quencher.

Clear dark amber to light brown colored ale with a medium sized tan colored head.
Smells malty with a burned sugar scent and faint smoke. Caramel scent with a faint flowery hop scent. Best as I can ID the flower it is Honeysuckle.
Starts out on the sweet side with lots of malt. Caramel and some burnt sugar taste. Faint smoke but there is more burnt sugar flavor. Toffee and that is about it, hits all the bases.
Mouthfeel is OK.
Overall a tasty mild Scottish ale that is a little on the sweet side.
