May 16, 2009 Bomber. Poured amber with a white head, lots of lace. Aroma of heavily hopped, with citrus, pine, floral, earthy varieties. Taste is also hoppy bitter with some malt sweetness. Finish is little bitter. Taste wasn’t as hoppy as I was hoping for or expecting. Malt was there, and made it a little sweeter than most IIPAs. Overall, an okay IIPa, with a nice nose and sweet taste.

May 13, 2009 fairly clear pour of amber with a off white head which shows decent retention.
smells of citrus pith, non resinous pine, caramel, woody/earthy/spice and a touch of alcohol stinging.
the palate is a touch on the sweet side but it does have a nice mildly bitter and dry counterpart... the flavor is a boring version of the aroma but there is nothing wrong with it... it seems to have an earthy almost muddy finish.
the medium body is not sticky or cloying... combined with pleasant carbonation makes it easy fro drinking in quantity.7/3/6/4/15/3.5

May 10, 2009 Bomber. Clear gold with a massive white head. Very dusty nose, piney and floral. Drippy lace. Very floral flavor, light dust and bread. Seems very mild/bland - I kept waiting for this to pop, never happened. not bad, though.

May 5, 2009 Bottle. Pours a golden-amber color with a foamy white head. Aroma is strong with hops. Notes of citrus, pine, grass, and sweet malts stand out as well. The flavor is a little watered down for the aroma, but still a decent beer.

May 4, 2009 On tap at AVBC tasting room. Not one of my favorites. Nice appearance, golden-amber color with a foamy white head. Aroma of citrusy hops and sweet malt. Flavor is the same, as you’d expect, but it lacks a little of the hop punch I was looking for from the style. Palate pretty average. Drinkable but nothing special.

May 2, 2009 [22 oz bottle] Pours a bright copper color with a nice foamy white head. Aroma is skunky and full of citrus hop power. Flavors focus on the hops, as you’d expect, with a nice malt foundation. Finishes dry and aromatic; really quite nice overall.

Apr 30, 2009 Bomber. Decent mix of floral and citrus aroma. Copper body with white head and moderate lace. Good citrus fruity flavor along with some sweet sugar and chewy body texture. Little dry bitter on the palate but normal with Impy IPA’s. Good brew.
