mcbackus (724), Merritt Island, Florida, USA Nov 3, 2009 Bomber. Pours an slightly cloudy amber color with a soapy bubble off white head. Aroma is a subtle hop aroma that is slightly soapy and not pungent at all. Also dome pretty goid malt with a nice toffe crystal malt aroma. Flavour is a grassy hop bitterness with a nice malt background some grainy bitterness also the malt is present but pretty much covered up by the bitterness all the hops seem to be fir bittering and not flavor. I really dont know why you would dry hop with magnum no flavor Cletus (4999), Connecticut, USA Oct 17, 2009 Pours a hazy amber with a huge off white head. Smells of resiny pine, some spice, sweet citrus. Tastes bitter and resiny with some stickiness and a sweet citrussy finish. msante79 (778), Orland Hills, Illinois, USA Aug 24, 2009 Bomber. Pours cloudy orange with huge off-white head. Aroma is with citrus, pine and sweet malts. Flavor is sweet malts, caramel, bitter hops, citrus, some pine and little alcohol burn. Finishes with bitter hops and some sweetness. Thought ABV was higher than 6%. michael-pollack (2598), King of Prussia, Pennsylvania, USA Jul 21, 2009 22oz. Bottle: Aroma of earthy hops, pine, light citrus, slight pale malts, and some toasting. Poured amber with a hint of copper in color and a large, fluffy, foamy, dense, off-white head that diminished but lasted throughout. Cloudy. Lightly sparkling. Full of small particles throughout. Flavor is medium bitter. Tastes of hops, pine, resin, earth, light malts, slight citrus and some salt. Medium body. Dry texture. Average carbonation. Hoppy, earthy, piny, light malt, resin finish is lightly dry. cathcacr (585), Portland, Oregon, USA Jul 3, 2009 The bottle I shared with kenb appeared to be at the beginning of an infection because the foam was so abundant and filled nearly all the glass, leaving little room for the actual liquidy goodness itself. Once that debacle died down, I was able to gather my thoughts and come up with what I hope is a fairly objective rating. Thank you for reading. jbrus (4835), Delft, Netherlands May 9, 2009 Tap@Brewpub. Light malty and grassy aroma. Light hazy, amber colour, off-white head, good lace. Light sweet, bitter, light malty, very grassy. Medium body. Flavourful and well balanced. Miksu (2187), Jyväskylä, Finland May 8, 2009 0.65 l bottle, thanks oh6gdx! Amber color with creamy head. Mangoish, tropical fruity and sweaty hops in the aroma with hints of nuts. Bitter, nutty and hoppy flavor with notes of mango and apricot. The hop character is kind of sweaty.
