Bottle @ Jon’s place on the 4th. Pours a bit hazy golden orange appearance with a lasting white head. A lot of caramel and bread in the nose. Dull grapefruit and herbal hops. Fairly burger. Nutty, toasted bready flavor. Slightly oxidized. Dull citrus. Not that great.

220z bomber c/o Elise. 2013 Vintage. Cherry brown-burgundy body. Big, fluffy beige head. Kind of a mellow aroma...caramel, chocolate, oak, whiskey. Sweet and rich, but somewhat delicate on the palate still. The big brown winter ale still shows, luscious brown malt tones, and it has a pleasant balance to it. Doesn’t have that taste like they threw a liter of booze into the barrel to prime it. A really easy drinking 9% beer, smooth and easy on the palate. Good stuff. Never a sugar bomb or cloying, which is rare for the style in my opinion.

Draught @ Pop Kitchen & Bar, EMP Museum, Seattle, WA

Pours clear golden orange with a small white head. Aroma of pine, citrus, resinous hops, grass and crisp malts. Taste is hoppy, malty and grassy with some pine, resin and citrus. Finish is malty, bitter and resinous. A nice classic style west coast IPA

Golden amber color with frothy white head. a touch of caramel, pine and touch of wood in the nose. Decent backbone, but very hop forward without being too aggressive. very drinkable and approachable IPA. Not huge depth, but well executed IPA.

Bomber from Let’sPour.com. Pours brassy gold with a slight white head. Aroma is near dank mix of citrus/pine. Med body, nearly. Flavor is mild caramel with a lot of hop. It is citrus, it is pine. It also seems earthy floral. Or maybe dank c/p. There’s a lot of hop in this. Yet the burn is mild. Mayhap the NW is getting a bit more subtle in how they overhop ales. Tasting really good.

Draft at the brewery. Pours a pale yellow. I really like this. Very refreshi.g on a nice day. Tropical fruit aroma. Very light bodied flavor with a long banana finish. Well done.

On tap at Brouwer's Cafe, pours a clear golden with a medium white head. Aroma brings out loads of piney hops, floral notes, and just enough biscuity malt. Flavour is very floral and piney, with almost a soapy palate. Fairly restrained for a IIPA. Both the flavour and intensity seem like this is a 5% session ale. Highly drinkable, but leaves a bit to be desired.

Draught at Seattle Tap Room (Sea-Tac Airport)
Amber color, clean, with creamy head. The aroma is lightly fruity, and lightly sweaty. Quite common malt flavor, dry, with rather strong bitterness and some hop resins.
Clean, but obvious, Pale Ale.
