Pour is a dark brown with a small white head. Aroma is a very nice pine hop. Flavor is again all things evergreen hop. This is not a over the top DIPA but more like a intro to the style if that even seems possible. Very nice hop with some caramel malt to put hop heads in their happy place.

@dmacs-22oz bottle–pours a thin rich/foamy white head and yellow/gold color. Aroma is lemon/orange zest, grains of paradise, light/medium malt. Taste is lemon/orange zest/spice hops, grains of paradise, some pepper, sweet light/medium malt.

Bottle thanks to a generous BA, shared with others. Poured a slightly hazy dark brown with a brown head that dissipated to the edges. Aroma was full of chocolates with a particular note of sweet bakers chocolate coming through as well as some milk chocolate. Flavor was similarly full of chocolate that started with bakers chocolate but ended with sweet milk chocolate. Very thick on the tongue.

Bomber from Wine & Cheese in Clayton, MO. Pours lightly hazy light amber with a small, foamy off-white head. Aroma is pretty bready, and the noble hop aspect seems rather mild. Med + body. Wow - this is pretty spicy (along with bready). Stacks up well to Victory’s St. Boisterous. This beer is very tasty, and I recommend you get some. Finishes bready/malty with herby/grass/spicy noble hop. Is it sweet? Is it bitter? Is it a bit of both? Good stuff. That from a guy who usually isn’t all that fond of bottem fermented beer.

22 fl oz bottle. Pours hazy brown with a small tan head. Aroma is roasted malty, yeasty and dry herba. Estery and distinct sweet to vanilla flavoured. Sweet and vanilla finish.

Location: 22 oz bottle from Colonial Wine and Spirits, 5/23/11

Aroma: That is a rather sweet nose, like orange candy with some floral and grass notes too
Appearance: A hazy orange-brown colored pour with a creamy beige head and lots of lace
Flavor: Also tastes heavy sweet with lots of orange and citrus, it turns just a touch bitter in the finish
Palate: The body is really smooth and creamy with just a little tingle on the tongue and a dry finish
Overall Impression: Overall, this is a sweet one. If you are a sweet beer fan looking to get into IPAs, this one might be for you, as it does have a little dry/bitterness to the finish that makes it feel (only somewhat) IPA like. (Get ready for this as it is going to be an excellent description): It is kind of like a cross between a cream ale, and an IPA, only if you dropped about 50 orange candy's into the glass. (I told you, brilliant, he said sarcastically.) I'd never even heard of this brewery before I came across this one in the store, but the beer was worth trying, and is hard to score. Post-rate (but still sipping) edit, it got just a touch better as it warmed, bumped the overall from 12 to 13.

Bottle shared by jcwattsrugger at Dmac’s house. Pours apple gold. White head. Nose and taste of orange peel, lemonzest, caramel and wheat. Spicy hops in finish. Decent.

22oz bottle picked up at Friar Tucks, as I understand this is freshly bottled. A black pour wiith a small head. Aroma is strong on chocolate, actually all chocolate. Can’t pick up much else, low on hops, no flaws breaking through the chocolate. Flavor is the same, the chocolate dominates and the base beer doesnt get in the way but doesnt do anything either. The body works well though, a little thicker and velvety. The beer is not sweet so its fun to drink if you want a chocolate fix.
