Bonfire Brewing Co.

22 oz. Bomber

Pours a pretty nice amber color, pretty nice carbonation, with a pretty nice one-finger off-white head, which leaves some sticky lacing behind. The nose is malty, yeasty, with some slight spice. The taste is malty, yeasty, spicey. Medium body. Overall, a nice little brew.

Light brown to copper in color and very murky in complexion. There's a fingernail of tan covering the top. I smell a lightly salty Club cracker aroma along with Styrian Golding hops. I taste light Belgian yeast and a light Club cracker flavor. The mouth is light, delicate, and dry.

Poured a dark amber color with a thick off-white head. Sweet and slightly fruity aroma with some malty caramel notes. Sweet and malty taste but there is a bit of an odd metallic taste. Little to no bitterness. Bottle says lightly hopped. I am struggling to detect any hoppiness. Maybe some light dark fruit flavors in the aftertaste. Silky smooth with light carbonation and a medium mouthfeel. I was looking for a bit more spiciness and a bit more hoppiness so its a decent once and done for me.

Pours a clear, copper color. 1/4 inch head of an off-white color. Decent retention and slight lacing. Smells of slight smoke, sweet malt, yeast, hint of pale malt, hint of caramel malt, hint of alcohol, hint of clove, and a hint of biscuit. Fits the style of a Biere de Garde, but a little light on ABV. Mouth feel is sharp and clean, with an average carbonation level. Tastes of sweet malt, slight clove, hint of pale malt, slight smoke, hint of hops, hint of yeast, and a hint of caramel malt. Overall, weak appearance, smoke and clove dominate body and aroma, good blend, but definitely not a Belgian style.
