Bottle. Amber beer with a dark cream head. Tropical fruit and light grapefruit aroma. Tropical fruit and light summer fruit flavor with light grapefruit. Medium bodied. Good bitterness. Tropical fruit and light grapefruit lingers.

Bomber from Bine & Vine. Pours brilliant copper with a yellowish beige head. Aroma seems resin and roasty malt. Full bodied or nearly. It has a slight treacle start, which is rather overwhelmed with a lot of resin, floral, and maybe citrus. It’s a hoppy bomber. Tho it’s almost like it has birch syrup. Finishes very hoppy, nicely (tho not NW) bitter, with an ongoing sweet aspect for balance. It is extremely delicious. Not a trace of heat.

Clear golden and very light amber coloured body with a rich, thick, five centimetre tall tan head - very nice. Aroma of resin, alcohol, pine, syrup, pineapple, passionfruit and a lot of grass -nice and pungent throughout. Full-bodied; Strong hoppy flavour at first with a lot of grass and pine at first then a bunch of syrupy and resinous flavours tucked in with a hint of oak and dry herbs. Aftertaste shows well with a moderate level of complexity all focused around the hops and light sugars. Overall, a nice beer, a good Imperial IPA, but nothing truly special. Good all the way around! I sampled this 65 cL bottle purchased from Belmont Station in Portland, Oregon on 11-November-2013 for US$9.35 sampled at home in Washington a few minutes after returning from Italy and in need of a ’real’ american beer.

Bottle at RBWG grand tasting. Pours cloudy gold with white head. Nose and taste of grapefruit peel, orange peel, pine and resin. Caramel malt. Medium body.

Bomber from Whole Foods. Pours a slightly dark copper color with a large white head. A big citrus nose, toasted malts, some caramel. Medium bitterness, bigger bitterness in the finish, massive resinous orange flavors, some soft pine, pretty light malt backbone. A good brew. Very smooth and mellow but big enough.

Bottle - Lots of pine, orange and grapefruit with a malt backbone. Clear copper with a bubbly white head. Resin, pine, orange and a big caramel backbone. A well balanced bitterness with a great mouth feel. A nice well balanced IIPA, but its a little dull. The hops don’t really stand out and are muddled within the malt profile.

On tap at Pap in Dec. 2013. It pours up with a clear amber sort of body that has copper hues and supports an off white head of foam. The aroma comes across filled with smooth sweet malts with malt sweetened tangelo and mango and a dash of dank hoppiness just behind. The taste is similar where it starts with smoothly sweet malts and a touch of caramel malts and then flowing into a pleasing degree of tangelo and grapefruit citrus hop flavor. To midway the hops become more resiny and bitter and are rounded out by a light onion earthy dankness. Nice but restrained and subtle for a IIPA.

Pour is a clear copper with a small white head. Aroma is super fruity and maybe even a little minty. Flavor is again tons of fruit, bitter hops and some thick but not overly heavy malts to follow. Finish is more bitter and leaves a nice mango on the tongue. This was an awesome beer. Very fruity and fresh.

Pours clear amber color with off white head. Floral and citrus hop aromas with caramel. Sweet caramel flavor with pine and citrus. Medium body with average carbonation and a syrupy mouthfeel.

Bottle. Pours with a crystal clear fuller golden hued body with a foamy off-white head that lasts. Aromas are of grassy and dank hops, lightly citrusy, pine, grapefruit, resin, cohumulone. Flavors are of mildly sweet caramel malt, herbal, grassy citrusy and hoppy. Pretty dank and resiny. Medium bodied, fruity. Medium carbonation. Good, but I’d definitely take a fresh Double Jack over it.
