Remember that first thrill ride and mind altering experience? Jet Star Imperial IPA shatters your senses in a way that has not been seen since Spokane’s ’74 World Expo. Jet Star is a roller-coaster ride of double dosed hops, packing 115 IBUs and 8.1% alc/vol. One heck of a flash-back.

Bottle courtesy of pjdipes. 22oz bomber pours with a clear copper body supporting a thin light tan head of foam. The aroma offers up sweet malts with a dash of biscuit malts mixing with resiny pine hops and some citrus hard candy notes. The taste delivers rich deep chewy notes that are grapefruit and tangerine as well as resiny pine hop goodness with a decent enough base of sweet malts. The malts fade some into the finish leaving pleasing rich hoppiness lingering behind. Enjoyable IIPA.

Bomber from Malt & Vine. Pours hazy copper with a foamy/creamy near-white head. Aroma is very hoppy, but it’s not harsh resin or citrus. Sort of mixed floral/citrus over a light, pleasant caramel backdrop. Near full bodied. Flavor is very hoppy - there’s hop burn. Still it seems floral and citrus. Amazing amount of hop here. Not even noticing the malt til I think about it. Suddenly I get light pitted fruit - apricot. Amazing. (that’s twice for that word). This finishes smoothly and hugely bitter. Extremely pleasant to drink.

Location: 22 oz bottle from State Line, 2/23/13
Aroma: The nose has citrus and floral hops with some bready malts
Appearance: It pours a hazed golden-orange with an off-white head and some sticky lace
Flavor: The taste has a citrusy sweetness and a light-medium hop bitterness
Palate: The body is medium, it has an average carbonation, and a lightly dry finish
Overall Impression: Overall, this is an okay example of the style, but not an impressive one. The hops feel a little bit too subdued. There really just isn't enough going on here.

22 oz. bottle, pours a clear orange with a small white head. Aroma of oranges, citrus hops, some citrus zest and just enough malt backing. Flavour of dry citrus zest, citrus hops, some dry orange-like fruits and crisp malt. Fairly standard IIPA, with not so flavouful a hop profile. Finishes quite dry and crisp. Uninteresting, but drinkable, IIPA.

Bottle @ home, picked up at Wilbur’s Foco. Pours a touch hazy, dark copper appearance with an off white head. Spicy, slightly vinous, pear, lemon, grapefruity aroma. Chewy, tangy lemon, grapefruity, light caramel, a bit juicy, bitter flavor. Not all that great. Not sure what Ratman was drinking but it does’nt sound like what I had.
