Good FL showing today in rating this brew. Wonder who will be next.
22 oz bomber poured crystal clear copper with a subtle purple hue and decent off white head. The aroma is light and smells like sweet malts, roasted malts, citrus and pomegranate juice and maybe a hint of floral hops. The flavor seems very much like the aroma with a subtle kick of roasted and sweet malts, a not so subtle pomegranate juice note across the entire mouth and then midway a floral hop essence joins in the fray with the pomegranate. This is good stuff but doesn’t really stack up against the other big beers they make.

Bomber. Pours a dark amber, nice white head, lasts quite a while. Very hoppy. Nice citrus flavor, with some noticable alcohol content, but for 10% it is pretty well masked. Finish is slightly sweet, with a bit of bitter hops.

Not a lot to this beer. Moderately hopped. Some malt in the flavor. Very light fruit-sourness, and it doesn’t especially taste like any particular fruit. An interesting idea.

Another Hebrew "pomegranate" beer, which means all hops and no pomes. Poured into a Cantillon rounded goblet with almost no head, color is dark copper with a good amount of clarity. Aroma is all hop with resiny cherry and grapefruit. Ttaste is a more watered down version with some cheap tasting caramel. A medium bitterness kicks in at the end. Overall comes out as a cheap DIPA, which would be normal considering Jeremy is calling this an Imperial Amber. I feel empty and cheated in the end.

Bottled. Rubyish amber colour, small head. Aroma is grapes, very wineous notes, grassy and alcoholic. Flavour is alcohol, malts, grapes (which make it very wineous). Slow to get down, but very pleasant sessionbeer.

22oz bomber. Copper color, with a good white head. Nice hop aroma, with a good chocolate and hop flavor. Bitter, and the alcohol is pretty well masked.

Malty aroma typical of an American brown ale. Clear brownish amber color with reddish hilites. A little white head that laces a mite. Has a smooth malty taste, again it’s a brown ale. Mouthfeel is medium, and creamier than most brown ales. There is a hint of some sort of spiciness, and there is a little hop at the end. Overall it’s a brown ale.
