Poured dark golden color with an average frothy white head that was mostly lasting with good lacing. Moderate floral and citrus hop and small malt aroma. Medium body with a slick texture and soft carbonation. Medium to heavy bitter flavor with a medium bittersweet finish of moderate duration.
My expectations where met and good addition to fest.

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jul 26, 2009 Bomber shared at PPRBSG. Pours a light gold- hazy with a nice tight white head. Aroma is crackery malt a tad old- some papery oxidation with green and herbal hops, slight spice, dough and apple skin. Flavor is also oxidized and the malt is turning slight astringent- dried crackers, cobwebby- grassy and light citrus orange hops with slight aging cheese and stale mint leaves. Meh.
