22 oz. bottle, pours a very cloudy orange with a medium beige head and loads of sediment. Aroma is very earthy and yeasty, with bubblegum and rock candy. Doesn't smell like an IPA in any way. Flavour is fucked up, with loads of the Nelson Sauvin hops, maybe a bit of brett, and white wine. Almost tastes infected, but more like a saison. Strange stuff - it tastes very good, just totally off-style. Hard to get my brain away from thinking it's an IPA. It's alright.

8.5% abv 22oz bomber IIPA for under $5? Nice. The bottle pours with a crystal clear copper body that supports a light tan head of foam. The aroma offers up malts, some crystal malts and a bit of caramel to go along with faint cherry like fruity esters mixing with citrus flavored gummy bear hoppiness. The taste begins with some fruity sweetness that’s citrus hard candy hoppiness mixed with sweet malts and crystal malt sweetness. To midway a pleasing light degree of earthy tea leaves surfaces along with an upwelling of faint cherry like fruity esters. Into the finish I realize there are moments here and there that have a resiny pine hoppiness. Overall this beer isn’t all that cohesive.

Bottle. Amber beer with a cream head. Earth and white wine aroma with light citrus. Pine and earth flavor with light white wine and light caramel. Medium bodied. Good bitterness. Earth and pine lingers with light grapefruit and light whie wine.

Bomber from Total Wine in Sacramento, CA. Pours light orange with a slight beige head. Aroma is mixed fruits and caramel. Med body, or nearly. Flavor is very mixed, unusual fruits with some caramel background. It’s hoppy - trying to start a burn. It’s dry and bitter. Maybe this is a single hop? The strange fruit aspects may be an indicator?
