Bottle poured into a shaker. Pours a clear, dark orange with 2 fingers of bright white head. Aroma of dank citrus hops. Taste is heavily bitter. Pine and citrus with loads of grapefruit. Medium bodied with a somewhat thin texture. Lively carbonation and a long finish. Overall, not bad. May be a bit past it’s prime though.

Bomber from Wine & Cheese in Clayton, MO. Pours clear amber with a foamy 4 finger off-white head. Aroma through the foam is light citrus over mild caramel. Med body. Flavor is somewhat roasted malt with citrus and floral hop. Nailed the style. Definitely more bitter than not.

Bottle from a trade with phaleslu. Pours slightly hazy golden orange color with white head. Floral hop aroma. Flavor is slightly bitter grassy hops with a little malt sweetness. Medium body with average carbonation. A nice APA. Thanks Peter.

Bottle thanks to bu11zeye. Pours with a fading off-white head and a hazy golden body. Aroma is fruity with caramel, grain and light hops. Taste is fruity with orange hops and some grain. Light bubbles and a thin mouthfeel. Decent APA.

Pour is a bright orange with a medium white head. Aroma is nice and hoppy with some pine in there. Flavor is a bit weak. Almost none of the hops in the aroma show up in the flavor. Finishes with some dry malts. This is by far the weakest offering by this brewer.
