8/2/18. Bomber from Otto's. Bottled on date is obliterated but I suspect it's got some age. I bought this about a week ago. Hazy orange, large frothy white head, good retention. Aroma of pale malt, mandarin orange. Taste is orange, citrus, mandarin, lemongrass, pale malt. Medium bodied, syrupy, moderate lingering bitterness. Solid.

Hint of helles/Noble hops on the nose and front, interesting yeasty notes too. Complex and slightly thick for an IPA.

22 ounce bottle into signature teku glass, bottled on 9/27/2017. Pours slightly hazy deep golden amber color with a 2 finger fairly dense and rocky off white head with awesome retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lasts. Thick soapy lacing clings down the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation retaining the cap. Fantastic appearance. Aromas of big lemon, lime, tangerine, peach, pear, apricot, pineapple, papaya, mango, melon, citrus zest, pepper, pine, honey, lightly toasted bread, herbal, wood, and floral/grassy earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of fruity/tropical/citrus/earthy hops and moderate bready malt notes; with great strength. Taste of big lemon, lime, tangerine, peach, pear, apricot, pineapple, papaya, mango, melon, citrus zest, pepper, pine, honey, lightly toasted bread, herbal, wood, and floral/grassy earthiness. Light-moderate pine, citrus peel, grassy, spicy bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of lemon, lime, tangerine, peach, pear, apricot, pineapple, papaya, mango, melon, citrus rind, pepper, pine, honey, lightly toasted bread, herbal, wood, and floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a while. Great complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/tropical/citrus/earthy hops and moderate bready malt flavors; with a great malt/bitterness balance, and zero lingering hop astringency after the finish. Light-moderate increasing dryness from bitterness. Medium carbonation and body; with a very smooth, moderately creamy/bready/grainy/sticky, and lightly resinous/rindy balanced mouthfeel that is great. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 7.5%. Overall this is an excellent IPA. All around great complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/tropical/citrus/earthy hops and moderate bready malt flavors; very smooth and easy to drink with the modestly bitter/drying finish. Very unique hop profile from the 484 experimental hop. Great mix of juicy, earthy, and dank hop complexity; balanced bready malt backbone, with no residual sweetness. A very enjoyable offering.
