Bomber poured a hazy golden amber with a small lingering light amber head. Aromas of fruittiness, grassiness, carmel and light pine. Palate was medium bodied and smooth with a lightly dry finish. Flavors of pink grapefruit, orange, pine an d light carmel with a smooth lightly dry lingering finish.

Bottle, thanks to Bu11zeye. Pours a cloudy gold with white minimal white head. Has a nice fruity aroma. Aroma consist of some grapefruit and a nice bitter. Full mouthfeel, but still seemed watery.....This beer seemed boring, no pizzazz....Did not seem like a high gravity beer....

Better than average citrus hop aroma. Sweet grapefruit, especially in the aftertaste. Some malt sweetness as well. I really liked this and I am surprised to see it is rated so low for the style.

Basic hop biterness with a squarish caramel/cardboard scent undrneath, grapefruit appearing. Cloud light amber with minimal head (from bottle), flat tasting, with a little ho edge to it. The flavor is poorly balanced, heavy on the grapefruit rind & thin. Warming finish Ar-6 Ap-3 Mf-2 Flav-5 Oa -11

Bomber. Good citrus, floral and pine aromas. Copper body with off white head. Flavor is sweet citrus oranges and dry hop bitterness. Leaves the palate dry looking for a thirst quencher to balance the dry palate. Good brew.

Exactly like a gigantic Sierra Nevada Pale Ale. Sweet though. Body was a bit syrupy. A bit hard to enjoy on a warm day and dare I say been there done that? Interesting and fun but the for the hefty price tag, I was hoping for a lot more hops and dry hopping and/or something really spectacular.
