BeerFanDan17 (610), Land O Lakes, Florida, USA Mar 19, 2009 Probably the best IPA I’ve ever tasted. The balance of hops and malt were perfect. Touch of sour to balance bitter, tangy, and sweet. Purchased at Pizza Port. Pours dark golden with thick yeast. IPAGargoyleGuy (139), Troy, NY, New York, USA Mar 13, 2009 My first offering from Tomme Arthur, need more! Not as bitingly hoppy as sime DIPA’s, but its pine and sweet aroma’s balance the flavor well. LearninBeer (194), Sterling Heights, Michigan, USA Mar 11, 2009 From Daknole, Thanks! Pours golden in color, big white foamy head, excellent lacing, mostly lasting. Aroma is hops, sweet pine, citrus, smells delicious. The flavor is a little sweet, bitter, hints of citrus-grapefruit, slight warming feeling in the stomach a minute later, very good. brokephibroke (137), Mead, Colorado, USA Mar 10, 2009 deep amber copper pour with minimal head. Sweet grapefruit This is a great beer. Love the sweet and bitter. very citrusy and earthy. Great warming and linger. WakeandBake (422), Greenville, Michigan, USA Mar 8, 2009 22oz Bomber.A trade extra from kosko20 thanks John. A hazy amber, orange, color pour with a huge fluffy offwhite head,that faded slowly,leaving some nice lace. Aroma seemed somewhat subdued at first (the big head was hiding it) very nice grapefruit,orange zest,pine,and herbs.
Flavor is huge bitter hops YUMMY tastebud bashing pine,citrus and herbal resin bitterness with a little flash of caramel sweetness here and there, a hint of the alcohol at the finish. Full mouthfeel,medium carbonation DUDE this shit is the bomb. Aftertaste = HOPS , burps = HOPS . dm9831 (1167), Monee, Illinois, USA Mar 8, 2009 hazy gold, not much of a white head, some lace. nose is sweet malt, citrus hops, bordering on the too sweet. the flavor is creamy caramel, sweet malts, with an offset (but not enough of an offset) with citrus hops, and a hint of piney hops. medium body, lingering bitter finish. pretty good, well worth a taste. sampled with cornfield whiling away the time at his house. fidelis83 (707), Clinton, Iowa, USA Mar 8, 2009 Pours murky peach copper with almost no head. Aroma is Lots of pine sap and sweet red grapefruit, rich caramel notes (like candy sweet), toffee, almond nougate, a touch of green apple and some almond nougate. Flavor is carame, pine, toffee, and fruity candy upfront. Soon after comes in the burnt sugar, bitter grapefruit, melon, green apple, peach, and burnt sugar. The finish is pine, bitter grapefruit, white tea, and more burnt sugar. The palate is medium thickness, a little oily and slick on the tongue, carbonation level is a little low and finish is moderately dry. GuilTTy (527), Cherry Hill, New Jersey, USA Mar 7, 2009 Bomber from BevMo in Scottsdale, AZ. Pours a deep copper bronze under a tall rocky white head. Huge pine forrest and grapefruit aroma. Flavor follows the aroma with plenty oitrus and a solid malt backbone. Texture was a bit chalky for me hut the finish is crisp, hippy and welcomig of another sip. Glad I stumbled on this in the isles.
