Sample from 650 ml bottle. Unclear, golden-amber with a thin, off-white head. Fruity aroma with citrus, grapefruits, sweet, exotic fruits and caramel malts. Taste is sweet. Medium to full body, creamy texture. Bitter, dry finish with floral hops.

Bottled. A hazy amber beer with a beige head. The aroma has notes of straw, malt, caramel, and hops. The flavor is sweet with strong notes of hops and lemons as well as medium notes of malt, caramel, and peaches, leading to a very bitter finish. Thanks Theis for sharing.

Good, dense, whipped eggwhite-like yellowish head, slowly collapsing over well-carbonated, surprisingly clear orange-amberish beer. Pungent hopsnose of exotic fruit, but also strong background aroma of vegetable frying oil, sweetish. Banana, babyfood. Bitter, hopoils with just a hint at fruity sweetness in the background, not coming through. As if canned exotic fruitmix had been covered with quinine - or iso-alpha acids, of cours. Bitter melon, cakebottom. Very slick hopoily, rather well-bodied. Discreet alcoholwarming. A bit harsh at face value, but it grew on me. Could have another like that.

Bottle. Pours a cloudy orange with paperthin white head that diminishes to nothingt. The aroma is a strong grapefruit and floral. Medium mouthfeel with a strong bitter hop and fruit with nice lingering bitter finish. Really enjoyed this one.

Bomber from The Davis Beer Shoppe. Pours rather orange with a yellowish beige head. Broad fruity aroma palate. Med minus body. It’s hoppy, spicy, lots of caramel. Quite a bit of fruit too, and there is a bit of heat. It finishes caramel, fruit, hop, and goes sweet to bitter in a few heartbeats. Lingering bitterness. Quite tasty.

Bottle. No freshness date. Pours with a lightly hazed deep orange hued body with a lasting bone white head. Aromas are sweet and boozy. Very strong canned/caramelized pineapple, strong strong strong fusel alcohol. Lemon, citrus, papaya, pine and resin. Sum: sweet, boozy, but with nice hops. Flavors are astringent/tannic grain, soil, earthy, sweet boozy, messy. Very hot, mildly bitter, grainy. Extreme fusel alcohol for a 9% abv beer. Hop character is a background note to the intensely harsh and solvent like alcohol. Estery, rough fermentation. Quite brash to be honest. Mild tropical fruit and resin, sweet. Lively carb, warming, astringent, fuller bodied.

Pours deep hazed gold into a tulip. Bright white head with good retention recedes soapily. Passion fruit, pineapple and grapefruit aromas. Thick with sweet caramel and wheat upfront turning quickly tropical fruits and resin before the bitter grapefruit pith finish.
