Man they dialed this one into the click. Aroma is Citrus hops perfume and very volatile. Flavor is similar to Noah's butt hugely more expensive. The grapefruit is exactly perfectly matched for The Malt hops yeast the exact right amount of carbonation everything is just being on perfect really great beer perfect body and finish.

Tap@Brewdog Malmo - orange pour with white head. Sweet fruity with lots of grapefruit prominence, seems rather overt sweet/artificial, sweet malty backing, hoppy finish.

Hazy golden color with a fine white top. Ok lacing. Nice hoppy intensity in the aroma. Medium (+) body and a fine carbonation level. Easy to drink. Ok bitterness versus sweetness. Grapefruit hoppy (+), fruity and pine in the flavor. Lasting tail.
[On tap at BrewDog in Norwich, England]

On tap at First Draft, pours a hazy golden blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out lots of grapefruit and citrus hops. Flavour is a total grapefruit bomb, with citrus hops and dry biscuity malt. Oily grapefruity bomb. Fun stuff.

Sampled from the tap at the brewery. Pours a clear straw yellow with a white head that dissipates slowly to the edges and laces slightly. Aroma is full of rich grapefruit with some citrus and grains backing. Flavor has a nice fresh grapefruit note that gives bitter finish and has a grain backbone.

22oz bomber pours with a near opaque copper body that supports a thin dirty white head. The aroma offers up loads of grapefruit flavored gummy bears, citrus hops and then grapefruit juice. The taste delivers basically the same with grapefruit gummy bear candy, bitter grapefruit juice and bitter grapefruit like hoppiness. Amid the bitter notes it does get juicy with grapefruit and tangerines. Solid fruity IPA where this leads with bitter notes rather than juiciness.

Bomber from Final Gravity in Roseville, CA. Pours translucent gold with a white head. Very hoppy aroma - lots of citrus. Med body at least. Flavor is citrus - and there is something very like fresh grapefruit juice. Zest too. Very tasty and enjoyable. Bitter. Hoppy. Malt - gotta be some.

Hazy gold beer, good pale cream colour head. Palate is light, mildly dry and has a good fine minerally crispness. Very light malts, mildly sweet. Tangy pink grapefruit with tangy orange and mild lemon peel. Light pine. Light finish. The grapefruit additions work well.
