Part of the MEPS series. An American Double India Pale Ale that packs a punch when it comes to hops. The aroma and flavors will give you citrus and pine with a slight malt sweetness that finishes dry.

Pours clear copper color with off white head. Grapefruit and pine aroma with some caramel malts. Moderately sweet grapefruit flavor with some pine and a good dose of bitterness. Medium body with average carbonation. I like it.

Bomber from The Davis Beer Shoppe in Davis, CA. Pours clear bright copper/amber with a creamy off-white head. Aroma is mild roast caramel with some barley wine hop levels. Full bodied. Flavor is roast malt with a lot of hop. Still has that brown sugar aspect, but there’s floral, resin, citrus, grass ... And there’s a lot of hop. Mild mouth burn. But the hop isn’t NW harsh. It’s just pretty close to overwhelming. Not sure it finishes dry, but probably close enough. This one is for hop - not harshness. Did I mention there’s a lot of hop?
