May 2, 2008 22 oz bottle poured into a trappist glass has a red amber color with a thick beautiful tan frothy head. aroma has sweet caramel malt, delightful hops, pine, and fruit. flavor has lots of hop character with thick pine and citrus. malt is also plentiful bringing sweetness and light bitters. the flavor is well balanced and does have spice and pepper. finishes with malted bitterness and a flavor that stays on the tongue. nice and chewy and seemed to get thicker as the bottle was consumed.

Apr 24, 2008 Updated: Apr 25, 2008Bomber. Pours an attractive red-amber with some white head. Aroma very sweet and malty, flavor the same. Very caramel-y and thick. I feel like this beer just has too much malt body to it with nowhere near enough hops bitterness to counteract. It’s tasty, but just too sweet for me, and I had a hard time drinking any more than a swallow every 10 minutes. It’s good, just not my thing.

Apr 24, 2008 Bubbly hazy reddish brown with foamy off-white thick head that coats glass as it thins. Strong hoppy aroma. Warm, dry, smooth bitter hoppy maly taste. Reminds me of a drier version of Dogfish Head 90.

Apr 21, 2008 Pours a real hazy red amber with fizzy white head. Aromas of HOPS like crazy! Citrus and pine are also present. Flavor is all hops. If your not into ipa’s, dont even consider this guy. Really dry finish, but tolerable. Intense hop flavor with a good balance.

Apr 21, 2008 Absolutely incredible. Courtesy of Sparky27. Pours a cloudy reddish color with a off white creamy head. Aroma is mostly citrus. Tastes of grapefruit, candied sugar, caramel, and sweet hop. Palate is absolutely enjoyable, and finishes clean. I can drink this any time of year. Got to get my hands on the summer ale.
