Bomber from Casa De Oro Liquor. Medium golden in color. Sweet malty aroma with a bit of hops. Bready with a decent hop profile. Slightly bitter grain finish with some hops. Good ESL.

Sunny, sweet-lemondrop hop aroma, with some whiffs of cereal right as you’re about to swig. Clear medium gold with white head. A label that I wouldn’t want for my daughter to have posed for. Flavor gives me a strong citrus peel impression - zest and the bitter white pith. Sweet, hoppy. Viscous, heavyish body. Lasting orange pith bitterness in the finish, with a few grassy notes. MSL, Bradfordville.

22oz. Bottle: Aroma of light hops, pale malts, biscuit, toasting, and a hint of grains. Poured amber/yellow in color with a small, white head that lasted throughout. Slightly hazy. Slightly sparkling. Flavor is lightly sweet and lightly bitter. Tastes of toasted malts, hops, herbs, vegetables, and grains. Medium body. Average texture. Average carbonation. Herbal, hop, and malt finish.

This very much had the feel of a belgian strong ale. It was very light and crisp with high alcohol and florals. There was also some cirtus, i think lemon. Worth another try, because, i confess, i didnt finish the first one before it became fuel for the drain...again not because it was bad but because i was done drinking.

Hazy gold appearance with a medium size, off white head and good lacing. Spicy, herbal hop aroma with a whiff of soap on the backside. Slightly tinny taste, with resinous hops and sweet, earthy malts. Bitter, lasting finish. Small shortcomings keep getting in the way of full enjoyment.

on cask at Stout NYC. Body is very cloudy dark golden yellow, with a thin creamy off-white head. Lots of yeast chunks. Aroma is sweet and bready malt like challah, some stone fruit, and armpit-like hops. Bready malt flavor is more like sourdough, fruit is more like the peach pit, and floral hops are too resiny. Finish like envelope glue.

Bottle from BevMo: Liquid is a crystal clear honey golden color with a thick fluffy topping of head. Aroma is faint and hard for me to pick up any scents other than what little hops are present. The flavor is bitter with a heavy serving of hops but also caries a strong malt profile which balances it out quite nice. There is some after taste of bread and perhaps mint?
