Bomba is a decadent Wild Specialty Beer that evokes a liquid berry coconut layer cake. A vibrant, deep-red pour carries intense aromas of jammy strawberries and tart raspberries, intertwined with the earthy depth of blackberries. The wild fermentation provides a sharp, lactic acidity that cuts through the rich, creamy influence of vanilla and toasted coconut. Oats provide a velvety, substantial body, while cinnamon lends a subtle, warming spice to the finish. This collaboration with Amundsen Bryggeri strikes a complex balance between bright, acidic fruit and indulgent dessert-like sweetness, resulting in a multi-layered sensory experience where the funk of the wild culture enhances the fruit's natural vibrancy.
Appearance.SRM 25-35; deep, opaque reddish-purple with a dense, pink-tinted head that shows moderate to low retention; significant haze from oats and heavy fruit additions.
Aroma.High intensity aromatics of fresh raspberries and strawberry jam, backed by earthy blackberry notes. A distinct creamy sweetness from vanilla and coconut is present, alongside a delicate cinnamon spice and a clean, sharp lactic acidity.
Taste.Initial impression is a burst of tart red berries and dark fruit acidity. No hop flavor or bitterness is perceived. A mid-palate of toasted coconut and vanilla creates a "cake-like" sweetness that balances the wild fermentation. The finish is long and fruit-forward with a lingering hint of cinnamon and creamy oats.
Mouthfeel.Medium-full body with a thick, creamy texture derived from the addition of oats. Carbonation is moderate. A light, pleasant astringency from berry skins is present, accompanied by a soft, well-integrated alcohol warmth.
