Brewed by Pizza Port (Solana Beach)
Style: Imperial/Double IPA
Solana Beach, California USA

Shared with Sliffy and Puddintane. The pour is a nice light copper color with an off-white head. Lots of citrus in the aroma and some bready/malt scents as well. Nice on the palate with good carbonation. The flavor is mostly grassy hops and floral type flavors with hints of citrus behind that. Interesting flavor.

handbottled bomber from john (thank you much sir..... pours a golden orange brown with a soapywhite to off-white head. noticed some carbonation which is nice!..... aroma had an abundance of grapefruit and mandarin oranges. is there also some soapiness? not sure where that’s coming from.....flavors of earthy grassy hops which lends to some oiliness. very little bitterness but there’s a little more of that soapiness to go around.....if i ever get a chance to rerate this one fresh, i will. believe me.

Growler shared by kmweaver. Awesome robust, dank, sharp, oily and clean pineapple and honey hop nose. Big, rich, sticky, a bit sharp, oily, but very smooth. Has some chewy cereal grains, and some dry grassiness in the finish... quite good. Lately it’s difficult to score most DIPAs this high, but this one certainly deserves it.

Growler shared by Puddintane: Pours a hazy orange gold with a white head. Aroma, bright citrus and floral notes, some pale malts, some pine comes through as well. Flavor, huge citrus, piny resinous hops, pale bready malts. Just a great hop bomb, with a great citrus/pine bitterness on the finish.

Growler, courtesy of WeeHeavySD. Thanks, Jon! Pours a brilliant, bright orange-golden color; bright off-white head with excellent, solid fine-bubbled lacing; just a gorgeous, bright pour. Tons of resiny, clean citrus and oranges and a touch of tropical fruit in the aroma; nothing close to any astringency; just a touch of yeast and bread. Medium-to-full, chewy mouthfeel: creamy, slightly relaxed carbonation; tons of chewy citrus and oranges; very pleasant, soft and resiny hop character; intense hop flavor without any off-putting levels of bitterness; just a generous, intense, clean double IPA. Lengthy bitter finish: loads of citrus, oranges, breadiness, and a bit of sugar.

Courtesy of kmweaver. Clear pale body with a small white head. Big, piney, citrus nose with apricot, tangerine, pine needles, light cattiness and garlic. Moderately sweet, moderately bitter taste with grapefruit, tangerine, some pineapple, mango and cotton candy. Medium/full body is round with moderate carbonation. Finish is long and bitter.

Growler shared by Puddintane, thanks Dave! Yellow orange pour with a somewhat creamy white head. Aroma is a blast of fresh citrus and resiny pine with a bit of light bready malt and some grassiness as well. Flavors of bitter resiny pine, grapefruit, citrus rind, grass and pale malt. Medium body, malty/citrusy/bitter with a long bitter finish. Nice!

Growler fill from Port Solana. Murky yellow-orange with a thick, foamy, white head. Intensely woodsy hops aroma, with hints of spiced and candied fruits. Complex taste, starts a bit sweet with pine, citrus and spices, then becomes more bitter hops. Lingering sharp bitterness. Different and tasty.
