Bomber from Costco Bakersfield. Nose is big pine resin with spruce thrown in along with some mango and papaya. Really hoppy. Clear orange with a medium lightly lacing offcream colored head. Flavor is lightly bitter with lots of tropical fruitiness. Really good stuff.

I can’t believe I haven’t rated this. I’ve had it many times thinking I had already. It pours a clear orange gold color, rather in the rich/dark side with an off white head. The aroma is fruity with melon and peach. Other hints of grapefruit, juicy fruit gum and cedar. A little on the weak side for a fresh bottle. The flavor is nice with more rich fruity peach, grapefruit, juicy fruit and a little bit of cedar, pine and resin. The bitterness is pretty mild and the body is very thick and oily. Mostly hop forward without much maltiness except for a decent amount of honey. Pretty good, as usual, but not as good as some of their other hoppy offerings.

Flaska från SB som blivit stående några månader för mycket kanske. Ornagebrun, lätt disig högt skum. Fortfarande hyfsat pigg humle i bra balans med en kraftfull kropp. Tallskott, apelsinskalsmarmelad, honung, kåda. Rejäl sötma med karamell och honung men bra balans mot beskan som ligger kvar länge. Riktigt gott

bottle - Pours copper and smells of piney hops with some bready and caramel malt and some citrus in the background. The flavor has a good hops bite and a solid malt body with a touch of caramel. Very good brew.
