Bomber from CraftShack. Pours brassy gold with a white head. Aroma is lightly, lightly sour pale stone fruit. Med body or nearly. Flavor is moderately sour, strange light coffee flavor, and some pale stone fruit. Overall it’s a moderate sour with interesting flavors. Finishes a bit coffee/earthy, sour and definitely pale fruit. It’s dry. It’s bitter enough. It’s sour enough. It’s very different. Different may not always be good, but this is good.

Unplugged Imperial Stout 9.5% on tap at Lingua’s 2nd Anniversary
A deep brown with a beige head and a roasty malty aroma. The taste is a tough syrupy and roasty but with lots of character and honestly the ABV took me by surprise. Really good.

I think ShoulderBroken said it right this is way too malty, unbalanced mildly sour beer that feels like it was made by an experienced homebrewer trying his first sour. Kiwi character is not overly noticeable and does nothing for this beer. Drank 100ml and struggled through the last 25ml. Couldn’t imagine having a pint

Bomber from CraftShack. The bomber was filled right to the top where the cap grips! Pours translucent gold with a transient head. Aroma is mild, not very strawberry, kiwi. Med + body. Flavor is moderately kiwi tart - maybe you could say it’s a bit sour - I’ll say that. It’s quaffable. There’s a fruit skin aftertaste. Not a bad thing. Just say’in. This is very drinkable ale. And the flavor is not suffering from being preceded by a BB aged Imperial Porter. Very nicely done. Very good stuff.

Bomber from CraftShack. Pours light gold with a white head. Aroma of citrus and something that could be tropical. Pale malt. Med minus body. Flavor is light citrus, mild bread and something a bit spicy/peppery/grassy. Sort of a session ale. Quite quaffable.

On tap at Toronado San Diego. Hazy light orange with a small head. Fresh with apples, some kiwi, funk and light malt. The body was on the light side. Not that sour. Refreshing and nicely drinkable.

Bottle from Craft Beer Kings. Pours hazy orange gold with an off-white head. Aroma is pale stone fruit with accompanying rye. Med + body. Flavor is pale stone fruit in an almost sweet way, with a good dose of rye. It’s not quite dry; it’s fairly bitter; it’s fairly rye. It does gang awrye. :) Good stuff IMHO. Love the flavors.
