Bomber from Bine & Vine. Pours dark brown black with a dark tan head. Aroma of vanilla, dark treacle and chocolate. Med body or better. Flavor is vanilla chocolate, and then there’s a strong impact of smoke. Not just burnt malt. Smoke. Rauchbier! Coats my mouth like BBA stuff. Or single malt age stuff for that matter. Damn impressive.

On tap at Harry’s Hofbrau. Moderate orange aroma with smooth wheat backing. Hazy orange-copper with a white head of large bubbles that lingers. Taste is orange and a little pine. Quite juicy. Mouthfeel is medium-this with a moderate low bitterness and semi-dry finish.

22 oz. bottle, pours a clear golden orange with a small white head. Nose is full of pine, resinous hops, and just enough caramel malt to back. Flavour is extremely well-balanced, bringing out juicy notes of tropical fruity hops, resin, some pine, and just enough malt to balance. Tons of depth to this - a highly juicy IIPA without too much residual sweetness at first. The more you drink, the sweeter this becomes and the more difficult it becomes to drink. Decent stuff, but not exactly my style of IIPA - too sweet and syrupy after a while.

Pours a medium-light yellow-gold color. The head is medium to small in size and just a bit off white. The aroma is all hops. They’re big and sweet. Tropical citrus takes the front seat, but that grapey Nelson Sauvin flavor is right there, as well. Lots of pineapple, tangerine, mango, sweet grapes. There’s also a nice pine/juniper resinous background in the mix. Some berries bouncing around. The taste is big on hop flavor. Lots more of the same sweet tropical citrus mixed with sugary grapes. The beer never gets terribly bitter, but the finish shows off a little pine resin bite, which reins things in nicely. Light caramel sweetness but I’d probably call it mildly dry, overall. Light on the palate but still coats the mouth with oily hoppiness. Very good DIPA and the best beer that I’ve had from El Segundo. They did a good job showing off the blend of Nelson Sauvin and Citra hops. Great work.
