From a 355ml bottle on 29/8/2015. Pours a clear dark golden/red with a small to medium head. The aroma features caramel and lots of orange. Take a sip and your presented with caramel and toasty malt, more orange and a touch of apricot. The hops are full on, sticky, lingering and resiny, and provide a great contrast to the malt and sweet fruit. Medium to full body with average carbonation. A really nice, well put together red IPA.

Bomber shared at a tasting. Clear copper, thin fizzy tan head, good retention. Aroma of citrus, piney hops, caramel malt. The taste is piney, resin hops, caramel malt. Medium bodied, mild lingering bitterness.

Bottle. Clear amber with a large off-white head that lasts well. Gentle aroma is toasty with caramel and bread, pine and some citrus. Sweet and rich, but the maltiness is immediately swamped by citrus- bitter orange more than grapefruit - pine and pepper. The hop side of things brusquely fails to complement the malt. A bit of a muddle.

Pours red with large head.Malty aroma but with lots of resinous hops too. Some piny hops as well.Malty flavours too, very rich but again with a lot of hops to balance things out. Very resinous and piny, some spicy notes too.

Pours out a dark amber with thick, airy beige head. Malt dominates the aroma, leaning towards the RIPA side of the scale. Hops edge in on taste, lots of caramel malts too. Hops drag on in the finish. A maltier IPA.

On tap at Hop 'n Headz, pours a clear amber orange with a small white head. Aroma reveals notes of piney hops, spiciness, and light bready caramel. Flavour is dry, with piney hops and bready notes. Sort of vegetal and soapy on the finish. Decenty balanced and pleasant enough.

Bomber from Made in Oregon. Pours hazy dark copper with a creamy beige head. Aroma is sort of fruit and melon. Med body. Flavor of mild, slightly roasted caramel, and hop that seems apricot/melon. It’s bitter, but balanced, not harsh. Finishes just a bit more malty than I might like it. A drink that’s laid back.

It pours a dark red with a 1 finger head of foam, and leaves some light lacing behind.

It smells of citrus hops, some pine, and a bit of a malty note here and there.

It’s kind of bitter; I get some grapefruit, a little bit of pine, but there’s a solid malt backbone in this red IPA. Just enough sweetness to balance things out. A good brew for folks who like balance. Not so much for real hop heads.

Medium body, same for the carbo. Good mouthfeel that has some bitterness in the finish.

A good brew.

22 bomber. Clear red/amber body with a tall off-white head. Citrus/pine hop aroma. The flavor is nicely bitter with a good long dry finish. Nice Red IPA.
