Bottle from a trade with cbkschubert. Pours hazy dark golden color with off white head. Aromas of pine and grapefruit with some cereal malts and grassy hops. Citrus flavor with some grassy and biscuit flavors. Medium body with lively carbonation. Good, but kind of weird. Thanks Craig.

Bomber pours semi opaque gold – orange with off white head. The aroma has fresh grainy malts, lemon grass like citrus hops and a certain level of herbal green shrubbery notes mixing with earthy hops. The taste starts with fresh crisp hops from lime rind, lemon grass, green nearly wet herbal notes and rolling into grainy malts and lager yeastiness. Terrific crisp refreshing hoppy lager. Wow!

Fresh bottle. Extremely confused by all the low ratings. Pours with an ever so slightly hazed golden body with a medium sized white head that lasts about 2 minutes before fading to a thin sheet and ring. Good lacing though. Aromas are slightly spicy and herbaceous. Lemony, citrus, tangy lime hop profile. Some kumquat. More acidic (and less sweet) citrus fruits). Light bready and grainy malt profile. Some white wine notes (overly acidic sauvignon blanc or [unoaked] french chardonnay). Mineral notes, otherwise very clean. Flavors of citrus, lime, sulfur, white wine. Very interesting fruit/citrus hop profile. Lightly bready malt. Clean, crisp, short duration. Finishes with a bit of malt character. Super dry. Neutral to lightly bitter balance. More hop aroma and flavor than bitterness. Dry, lively bubbles, well attenuated. Crisp, lightly grainy. Just a touch warming. Very tasty, well made and unique IPL. Also seems pretty sessionable.
