Bomber from Holiday Wine Cellar: Clear golden amber color with a generous eggshell white head. Aroma is citrus and lots of pine. Flavor starts sweet grapefruit with a little grass followed by sharp pine ending with a tart grapefruit rind bitter finish. Medium bodied and oily with moderate carbonation.

2006 GABF Huge c-hop aroma, possibly a backing of honeyish malt. Taste is huge c-hops and really much else. Thick. This is a typical unbalanced west coast IIPA, the way they should be.

Wow. Bottle from WF. aroma is herbal, grassy hops. pours a cloudy amber, pretty decent co2. there is a hint of malt in front but it is quickly overwhelmed by a full assault of hops. citric, a touch of pine, all sorts of green grass, just delicious. fantastic brew, hides the 9.2% very well.

Clear auburn, oily white head. Smoth but dank hop aroma, grapefruit, orange and pine. Intensely bitter upfront but backed up by a huge hop flavor. Though very nice to look at, it has an overly filtered flavor to it, lending a bit of a harsh edge.

Oh man. Just the way I like my IPAs. Super hops. Intense citrus/pine taste. Another fine beer from Moylans.

Light amber in colour with moderate carbonation. Aromas of grapefruit, leafy hops, pine, and a bit of candied fruit. Standard west coast IIPA mix of chewy caramel malts, and resiny/citrusy hops. Quite a long grassy finish on this one, which is nice after all of the caramel malts. Quite good, but could be a tad drier. Thanks to oakbluff for sharing this one with me.

pour is a very nice looking orange-amber, small egg-shell head, excellent lacing. smell is grapefruit, a touch of sweetness, and graham cracker. taste is very bitter, dry, lots o’ hops, grapefruit. this brew is really hoppy, taste great, and is a must for anyone who enjoys bitter, bitter beer.
