Bomber from Made in Oregon. Pours hazy gold with a white head. Aroma seems citrus over pale malt. A bit like the good old Olympia beer in terms of nasal impact. Med body or nearly. Flavor is very hoppy, with resin and probably citrus, nice little burn starting on the tongue edges. The roasty malt expected is not surfacing for me. It’s relatively light malt backbone and some pretty zingy hops. Far from an IPA in body, but it’s rather slick in feel, and makes me think of a good old American "pilsner" on hoproids. Nice beer.
