06/26/2018 canning. Basically melted orange creamsicle except maybe orange juice instead of super high fructose sugar orange flavor. Each has it's place I guess. Can't wait for these to blow up like haze bombs have for the past couple of years, smoothie!

16 oz can poured, cracked to enjoy and celebrate a fun Mariners win. A fitting time to enjoy this beer as well, as it's basically ice cream. Tons of mixed berry and cream on the aroma. Pours a thick purple haze. Blueberry totally headlines this dessert berry festival of flavors. Blackberry, red berries and a slight grape. Total dessert IPA if such thing exists. A late lingering hop bitterness to try to balance this a little bit. Overall I really like this one. Never had one like this one, even among the other milkshake IPAs floating around. Solid brew here.

Bomber from the brewery. Pours black with a one finger dark tan head with good retention. Aroma is roasty, grain, almonds, chocolate, tobacco, licorice, cinnamon, wet stone. Taste is sweet with flavors matching the aroma and reminiscent of English stouts like Samuel Smith's. I don't have a problem at all with the palate, unlike previous raters. Seems just right. Overall, not bad, but pretty rich.

750 ml wax dipped bottle from the brewery. Aroma is lacto, vinegar, dark fruit, lemon, wood, raisin. Pours black with a one finger dark tan head with decent retention. Taste is sour (7/10) and acidic, moderately bitter and tannic, finishing dry. Interesting and tasty, but I don't know if I want to drink the whole bottle myself. Best shared maybe.

Can. Quite cloudy, but greyish. thin head. There's a fair bit of lime on the nose, with a hint of coriander, and some barrel. On the palate, the salt is fairly prominent, and then it's got the tartness, some yeastiness. Touch of lime, and maybe some more of that mezcal barrel. All told, one of the saltier examples I've had lately. Heavy lime, and a little bit of sweetness.

16 ounce can. Pours a clear orange hue with a medium white head. A light orange nose with toast. Very sweet, tropical, resin, sugary hop flavors. Vanilla, toast, earth base. Solid. Light, a sort of candied melon vanilla note.

Bomber from the brewery. Aroma is malty, boozy, grain, dark fruity esters, metal; smells a lot like a strong barleywine. Beautiful looking pour with a hazy burnt orange hue and a thick pillowy beige head with excellent retention. Taste is malty sweet with flavors of caramel malt, grain, toast, metal, clove. Carbonation is light. Pretty much a barleywine.

750 ml waxed bottle from the brewery. Aroma is lemony, pungent funk, fresh baked bread, vinegar, raspberries, fresh cut vegetables (not at all vegetal, though, if that makes sense). Pours hazy golden with a good sized off-white head with good retention. Taste is sour (7/10) and funky, finishing dry, with flavors like the aroma. Crazy and complex and interesting and tasty af.
