Tower 42 Tasting. Thanks to Fergus. Hazy orange - amber beer, small pale cream colour head. Palate is light, semi dry and crispy. Fluffy malts, mildly sweet, touch of tangy caramel. Tangy orange hops, marmalade, grapefruit and a fair bit of hop spice. Pine into light floralness. Light semi dry finish. Nice.

Bottle split at the level 42 tasting, thanks to Fergoose, 09/03/16. Hazed orange golden with a decent off white cap. Nose is leafy hop, orange pith, pine, citric rinds, toasted bread. Taste comprises more leafy hop, grassy, trace of pine, lemon rind, bitter orange, grain. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi aggressive hop bitterness in the close. Ok IPA.

Bottle shared in London - many thanks to Fergus. Pours rich, hay orange-gold with a frothy, off-white head. The nose holds ripening citrus fruits, orange rind, tangerine, light pine. Medium sweet flavor with a little dry bread, giant caramel, hay, pine needles, crackers. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Lightly warming on the finish, with more crackery pale malts, pine needles, minerals, orange rind. Fine.

Bottle at level 42, thanks to Fergus. It pours murky deep gold with a thick, foamy off-white head. The nose is earthy, soapy citrus, brioche, pine needles and grass. The taste is crisp, bitter, pine needles, soapy citrus, grassy, lemon peel, minerals, light spice and straw with a dry, soapy citrus finish. Medium body and moderate, foamy carbonation. Not bad, if a touch soapy.

Bomber from Bottle Barn in Santa Rosa, CA. Pours hazy gold with a creamy off-white or beige head. Big head. Aroma of citrus and tropical fruits. Med + body. Flavor is like grapefruit with some pineapple - and more. Itβs dry, earthy and nicely bitter. Very good flavor combos.

Dark Brownish Amber, Gushing Out Of A Bottle and Ten You Are Able To Pour It, Settles For A Head That Is Slightly Above Average. It Does Not Last And Diminishes to A Thin Ring Leaving Light Spotty Lacing. Muted Strange Hop Aroma. Tastes A Lot Better. Sweet Malt, Grapefruit, Resin, Pine Hop. Lasting and Pleasant Bitter Hop Aftertaste. Medium Body, Oily. Hides High ABV Well. Enjoyed It. Nice. Recommended...

Bottle. Amber body with a frothy, off-white head. Aroma of earthy hops, caramel, toasted grain, grapefruit, pine. The flavor is moderately sweet and lightly to moderately bitter. It finishes lightly sweet and moderately bitter. Medium body, watery texture, lively carbonation. Big hop flavor from raw leafy hops, pine. Long, lingering bitterness. Thick malts in the backbone. Not a favorite.

Bottle, tasting. Latest in their single hop series. Pours clear amber, small off white head, some lacing. Nice aroma with notes of citrus, tropical fruit and something exotic that I could not quite place. Flavor is much the same, little sweetness, medium bitter. Medium body. Quite nice actually.
