In river terms, a long swim means you probably aren’t having the best day. That’s about to changes thanks to the DIPA w/ Amarillo, Centennial, Eureka & Citra hops. It’s about to get epic!

22 oz. bottle, pours a cloudy bright golden yellow with a small white head. Aroma brings out a lovely piney hop character, with stone fruits and light caramel malts. Flavour is very fruity, with loads of piney hops, lots of resins, stone fruits and lightly sweet caramel malt. Great interplay with the piney hops and stone fruits. Excellent.

Hazy, pale. Thin head. The aroma is limey and orangey, with a little bit of pale malt. On the palate, a pithy citrus bitterness, with crabapple, touch of pine, and a little bit of papaya as well...a real hop melange. The malts are pale, and showcase the hops quite well. This is really tasty.

Bottle. Pours pretty clear butterscotch, large white creamy head, dissipates slowly with nice lacing. Aroma is dank, green onion, garlic, grapefruit pith, mango. Flavor is light sweet, medium bitter -- but not harsh -- dank and juicy. Medium body, soft mouthfeel. Extremely well masked ABV makes this a dangerous beer.

Bomber from Final Gravity in Roseville, CA. Pours translucent gold with a white head. Aroma of mixed fruits, citrus and, I think, floral. Med ++ body. Whoa, is this hoppy. Not exactly towards dank, but very hoppy. Pale malt support is barely noticeable. Flavor is sort of grapefruit zest with other citrus and fruits, with perhaps a slight pine aspect. Aroma is sort like a different dank than I’m used to. With time each quaff tends to "bleed" mixed citrus. It is bitter. Approaching harshly so. Really good stuff.

65 bomber Dipa provning PQ. Ljus kraftigt grumlig. Blommor + alla tropiska frukter. Sen mest viol. Oerhört komplex smakrik öl på bara 8% sjukt hög kvalité . Yeees.
