bottle from BevMo, pours light amber with a medium light tan head. Large bubbles leave thin lacing. Aroma is citrus forward with big juicy ruby red grapefruit notes, some pineapple. Very fruity and sweet smelling. Flavor is sweet caramel and toffee malts upfront, some bitter toast and biscuit ending with big herbal and citrus rind hop bitterness. The bitterness lingers for a while and the palate is left dry. Not my favorite of the bunch but still good and priced well.

Bomber pours clear copper with light tan head. The aroma is influenced by sugary malts followed by herbally – earthy – spicy hops. Nice. The taste has a pleasing level of bold spicy hops where the earthiness has a slight herbally black tea note with some citrus hop flavors around the edges. This tasty hoppiness is both bitter and flavor and stays pretty much the same into the finish. Good stuff.

Half liter bottle pours gold with copper core and tan head. The aroma offers up resiny hoppiness from spiciness, citrus and pine to floral and lime. Bruisingly bitter aroma, wow. The taste delivers a large bitter dose of spicy hops, grapefruit juice, lime peel, some pine resin and a light smattering of earthiness. This is a fully bitter brew nearing chewy resininess. Pleasingly robust bitter experience.
