does not count  Jul 17, 2008 22 oz. bomber. Pours amber with a head that lasts. Had a strong piney/citrus hop aroma. Flavor hit me with some caramel followed by huge hop bitterness on the end. A well balanced beer that is very enjoyable and hides the 9% alcohol pretty well. Overall an excelent DIPA.

does not count Jul 15, 2008 22 oz bottle. Unctuous pour with a persistent medium white head. Gorgeous color and clarity. Great nose, a little softer on the palate would have made this perfect. A little too medicinal for my taste. Lots of alcohol- beware.

Jul 14, 2008 Pours a light copper orange with a thick white head. The aroma was citrusy, with a little carmel, and strong hops. The flavor was citrusy with a nutty hint to it. It was also very hoppy, a plus for me. The feel was very smooth with a bitter finish. A great IPA.

Jul 12, 2008 650 ml bomber from Zinister. Pours a translucent copper color with a big sudsy white head that leaves plenty of lacing. The aroma is that of a classic IPA with plenty of citrus, pine and caramel. The flavor, like the aroma, is rich with pine, citrus and caramel, but its the hops that dominate with a good biter bite. The mouthfeel is full, smooth and malty. The finish is long and biter-sweet. Overall: This is one of the finest IPA’s on this planet, it exceeded my expectations by a long shot.. I love it. Thanks Zin, after a hard day at work this is great beer to come home to.

Jul 12, 2008 22oz bottle, Pours a hazy golden orange with a beautiful creamy frothy head with some nice lacing. Aroma is grass, and fresh hops, lots of fresh hops. Flavor is quite nice, some decent malts on the front and a long finish of pungent hops. a great double ipa here.
