The beer formerly known as Bomber" makes its grand return!
We couldn't possibly just let go of such a cracking IPA, so it's got a shiny new name and label but still the same wonderful tropical, juicy hop flavour we all know and love. It sits perfectly alongside Brave New World as two examples of the way we like our IPAs.
Malt: Golden Promise
Hops: Motueka, Mosaic

Slightly hazy yellow beer, thick white head and a smell of grassy, grapefruity hop.Flavour is grassy hop, zesty citrus, pine, a touch of tropical fruit sweetness as well. Lingering, tart fruit in the aftertaste. Really rather nice.

Bottle from Biernavigatie, BB Jun 2017, medium sample. Slight hazy golden color, medium frothy head. Aroma of tropical fruit, citrus, bit peach. Soft to medium bitterness. Not a lot of malty body. I like the hops here, but for a 6.8% IPA I expect it to have a bit more power. This could have been a 4.8% beer for what it provided and then it would have been very good though.
