Fairly clear deep amber and copper coloured body with a thickish, five to six centimetre tall off-white head that takes a long time to fade. Aroma of deep hops with grapefruit, grass, pine and resin with a lot of malts coming through as well with some nuttiness and a good caramelised sugar bite. Medium-bodied; Rich nutty and earthy flavours dominate here up front with a lot of bitterness from the hops, but nothing too pungent or deep, with a good balance from the rich malts that show some biscuits, but mostly earth and toffee. Aftertaste shows some hop bitterness and a wide range of malts with a little yeast and alcohol noticeable and a dry finish with a lot of bitterness. Overall, a fairly nice and 'typical' Imperial-ish IPA with a deep hop bitterness from the alpha acids with a supportive malt backbone and the only real difference here is how easy the alcohol comes through. Nice to sample, even a long way from Juneau, still up here in Interior Alaska! I sampled this 65 cL bottle, purchased from College Garage Wine and Liqours in Fairbanks, Alaska on 24-June-2021 for US$5,99 sampled in my hotel room here in Denali [Healy], Alaska on 25-June-2021.

12oz can from Hops & Bottles. Orange golden hazy, pour with a big fluffy head which recedes to a thin film. Very light strawberries in the aroma. Taste picks it up a bit, a bit more strawberry, a little bread. Subdued, by just the right amount of flavor for a summer day.

12oz can. Gross looking body, chock full of slimy floaties. Stale, off aroma. Not unlike a shandy, grapefruit, orange tones. All around not that impressive or enjoyable. Would not buy again.

Dark copper with a medium sized head. Sweet, tangy and yeasty with tart cranberry, grain and a bit of mustiness. Medium length finish. Medium body and smooth

A dark reddish hazed amber DIPA with a thin lacing light mocha head. In aroma, sweet caramel malt with resinous floral hops, light dark fruits, licorice, alcohol warmth, pleasant. In mouth sweet fruity caramel malt with vinous notes, dark fruits, treacle, alcohol warmth, a bit oxidized, OK. Bottle 2011.

Ok barley complex, but not really enough to make this shine. Easy drinking and ok, just nothing to travel to Juneau for. Golden pour with good head and lacing. Some cloying metallic aroma. Can.

Bomber from a random grocery store, 5/10/21. It was already out of date when I bought it, but, fuck it, it's a barrel aged eisbock, so what harm can come of its age? Upon opening the room is filled with a banana bread aroma. Clear red, thin head. Aroma of toffee, banana, nuts, booze. Taste is caramel, booze, plum, raisin, vanilla, dates. Full bodied, booze present but not bad. Warming. Alcohol is a little but too present, but it's still pretty good.

Pint can from Total Wine Roseville, 4/7/21. Slightly hazy orange, large frothy tan head, good retention. Aroma of strong passionfruit, pale malt. Taste is passionfruit, pale malt. Medium bodied, juicy. Very simple, but solid.
