Bomber from Malt & Vine. Pours hazy copper amber with a 4 finger creamy beige head. I get malt in the aroma, but having trouble with hop (too much head). Med to full body (lots of carb). Initial strike is a touch of sour. Followed by rather mushy/blah malt. I’m thinking the hops are earthy/herbal. With time my palate calms down, the sour sinks low, and the hop is more defineable. I’m thinking. Always a dangerous thing I know. (credits to Gaston) Just maybe a little infection from their brett beers. The bomber keeps foaming! SO THEY GOT LUCKY! It’s much more interesting than the old standard APAs. I am now much more positive than I was initially. It’s finishing quite nicely, tho not a standard APA flavor profile.

Clear amber coloured body with a nice, four centimetre tall, fast-dying white head. Aroma of yeast, brett, sour grapes and a hint of alcohol, along with a touch of hops. Medium-bodied; Strong yeast and brett flavours up front with a deep barnyardie funk and some light metallic notes, with hints of light and earthy hops at the end. Aftertaste shows a deep yeastie flavour with a bunch of malt, some caramel, hints of earth and barnyardie notes - all fairly interesting, if not consistent. Overall, nice to try, some interesting flavours with a definite funky note similar to the other Justice beers I’ve had. I sampled this 65 cL bottle purchased from Bottleworks in Seattle, Washington on 10-February-2013 for US$5.39 sampled at home in the real Washington on 20-August-2013.
