Jan 11, 2009 22oz bottle. Poured a beautiful copper with a nearly white lingering head. Aroma is fantastic, bursting with wet hops and fresh pine. Hops continue to dominate flavor, followed by a sweet citrus and bitter finish. Excellent pale ale for me.

Jan 10, 2009 22 oz bottle. Pours a dark amber color. Aroma is entirely of fresh wet hops. Flavor is extremely hoppy, citrus, and a light caramel flavor all in one. Passes the hop burp check. Bitter finish.

Jan 9, 2009 22oz - Aroma is pungent fresh hops, gooey pine resin with a caramel finish. Pours transparent copper with a medium head and great lacing. Flavor is sweeter than I expected and not as hoppy. Lots of malt, caramel and citrus hops. Palate is sticky. A nice tasty brew.

Jan 8, 2009 Bomber pours deep amber, decently persistent white head. Very hoppy nose with notes of grapefruit, orange, pine resin, honey. Lightly sweet flavor checks moderate hop bitterness. Maybe a touch too sweet and sticky, but overall damn tasty.

Jan 4, 2009 Pours a filtered copper color from the bomber with a creamy off-white head and steady carbonation. Smells of juicy oranges, lemons, and hops. Tastes predominantly of grapefruity hops with additional flavors of flour, grass, and faint caramel. Has a bitter finish with notes of black tea. A contender.

Jan 4, 2009 Updated: Jan 6, 200922 oz bottle I’ve been sitting on for awhile from Binnys South Loop (Chicago, IL). Pours a very nice bright organish amber hue with some haze and offwhite head of moderate size and retention. Aromas are a decent floral hoppiness with pale and carmel malts making a sweet balancing feelon the nose. Hops are nice, very APA in quality with citrusy and grassy hops. Taste starts with a decent bitterness, touches of bitter pine and grapefruit citrsuy floral notes mix well with light carmel and bready malts. Hops run the gambit of types: Citrus, grassy, and a touch of pine. Light sweetness and light hops make for a very quaffable brew, lighter on the palate but enough body and flavor to make memorable. Cheers!

Jan 3, 2009 Pours a medium orange color, mostly clear, with a thick white head and decent lacing. Aroma of pine hops and sweet malt. Taste has sweet malt and some tea flavors, with a citrus hop finish. Very refreshing beer, also not as bitter as the name would suggest - very nicely balanced.

Jan 1, 2009 Bomber shared with Barrios. Pours aclear gold with large off-white head. Great citrus hop aroma, a little grassy {just like the label says!}. Some honey joins the flavor with a slight bitterness in the finish. Fairly tasty, but WAY overpriced.
