Bomber from the brewpub. Pours a hazy amber color with tiny suspended particles. Large frothy head. Good head retention. Aroma of fresh leafy hops, earthy notes and toasted malts. The taste is citrus hops, some leafiness, caramel and toasted malts. Medium bodied. Very drinkable.

Bottle at Beer Temple. Slightly cloudy golden pour with small white head. Citrus hops with biscuit in aroma. Flavour brings in some caramel and fruit. Carbonation seems a little high but still a great example of the style

Hazy amber with a lasting off-white head. Aroms is sweet, malty, caramel and moderate hoppy - fruity. Flavor is quite sweet and rather bitter. Dry and bitter finish. Most breweries would call this their IPA. 140511

Vollmundiger Hopfenantrunk mit süß blumigen Noten. Diese festigen sich im Mittelteil, in dem das Bier zudem herb wird. Das vorhandene Malz unterliegt dem Hopfen so deutlich, dass es kaum auffällt. Auch später ist der Hopfen angenehm blumig, bleibt aber der Intensität eines amerikanischen IPAs deutlich zurück – es ist wirklich die amerikanische Version eines Bitters, auch wenn das Original deutlich alkoholärmer und geschmacklich entsprechend schwächer ausfällt. Super Bier! 6/11/11/12/14/12

Bottle shared by Marcus. Pours copper with a foamy beige head. Strong citrus hop aroma. Med body. Very floral in the mouth. ESB on steroids. Long floral bitter finish. Enjoyed this immensely.
