Oct 17, 2006 a pretty good ipa, pours a nice gold color with a rich head that lasts. crsip hop aroma, citrus and earthy at the same time. clean malty backbone that supports the hops, and a nice crisp bitter finish. very good beer.

Sep 30, 2006 Bottle shared with HogTownHarry & mds -- courtesy of HogTownHarry. Pours a hazy orange with a large lasting fluffy white head. Aroma is surprisingly sweet with fruity malt, some spices and a variety of fresh hops -- very nice! Hoppy flavour nicely balanced with sweet caramel malt -- pleasant spicey bitter finish. Simple but damn tasty. Medium bodied, creamy mouthfeel. Wow, I can’t believe how underrated this beer is, I thought it was absolutely delicious.

Sep 26, 2006 Updated: Sep 27, 2006Bottle (650ml). Shared with blankboy and mds, my bottle. Slightly hazy orange with a large off-white. Sweet-ish fruity malty, resin/citrus/floral hops. Taste - very bitter hops (herbal), citrus malt - nice balance. Average IPA body, decent carbonation, lightl astringency, nice herbal finish - nice.

Sep 18, 2006 Bomber which unfortunately exploded upon opening, sending five or so ounces onto the floor and into the sink. Doh! Otherwise, poured a cloudy orange with a huge merange-like craggy tan head, mostly lasting and leaving stripes of lacing. Aroma of grapefruit and piney hops, spice, a bit of soapiness and some tree sap as well. Very hoppy flavor, spicy, with rich caramel butter-toffee malt foundation. Almost reminiscent of an imperial. Medium palate-smooth. Nice lingering resiny hop bitterness on the finish. From what I salvaged this is a very good left coast IPA. Quite surprised the average rating isn’t higher.

Sep 8, 2006 Bomber. Poured a clear medium orange with an explosive and long-lived cap of creamy beige head... left some nice lacing. Nose was airy and grainy... with hard-to-reach pine and spicy hops... some caramel and toffee beneath. The flavor carried itself a little better, with pine, grapefruit, and spicy English hoppage on top of super-sweet caramel and candy corn. Medium bitterness on the not-so-memorable palate... a bit tacky at the back-end. Decent.
