From the Weekend: Bomber Brewing x Grandview-Woodland

Beerfest at Bomber Brewing's tasting room in Grandview-Woodland on January 31, 2015.

I've been to Bomber Brewing many times (and drank their bottles even more times), but never quite felt like I had a total sum experience of their offerings until now. I love their kitschy, old school branding and strikingly designed cans of beer.

The Eastside brewery has a vibrant yet unassuming feeling and demeanour echoed in their beverages.

I really like their reliable standards and interesting lineup of beers. The blonde is a very robust, easy drinking brew as is the ESB a solid British extra special bitter.

The Märzen (amber lager) is a smooth tasting, full-bodied, Bavarian style lager with a nice maltiness to it and clean finish.

The Absolute Horizon (Cascadian dark ale) is probably my favourite Bomber brew so far. It's a very satisfying blend full of rich texture and malt flavours. The Old Fat Heater (winter ale) is a strong, seasonal blend with a lot of bite.

I tried the Espressso Helles for the novelty and really enjoyed the strong, striking coffee taste from the German style pale lager.

The Cinder Ale is a nicely smoked altbier designed for the East Van patio. I had Dan's Famous Summer Bitter (obviously, over the summer) and found it was just as advertised, a clean, refreshing summer blonde in honour of the late Dan Small.

The Oktoberfest (München style lager) is a light and festive tasting version of their Märzen, inspired by autumn weather with hints of pumpkin.

Bomber has a great selection of standard and seasonal beers available for every style. Its tasting room is designed as a neat little sidebar full of character and charm.

I really do love that branding and those bottles, cans, and Boston round growlers.
