Has a very crisp aroma that is very springy and floralish. Is a light amber, very clear and sparkly appearance. Has a light white head, looks very appealing in glass. Very good flavor that is not too bitter or sweet. A perfect summer beer.

Bottle sampled with Stegosaurus. Pours copper with a white head. Aroma hops and caramel malt. Flavor was bitter, sweet, and caramel. Not bad picked up while in Vermont visiting micro breweries.

Pours out yellow in color with a sticky white head on it. Hoppy, even slightly soapy smell to it. Very drinkable, almost able to gulp it. Not bad in all, something to drink during the summer perhaps.

22oz bomber from Tiger Town. Amber-red translucent body with about a quarter inch of off-white head that leaves a fair bit of lacing. Aroma is slightly weaker than expected, and consists of hops with hints of yeast and diacetyl. Tastes caramelly and biscuity with some yeast and hops to support. Dry finish. On the lighter side of medium-bodied. A pretty good pale ale. Definitely one of their better offerings, and something I could see myself drinking on a regular basis.

Bomber - Pours a darkish amber in color with a whitish head that faded to a faint white rim aroud the glass. Aroma is of flowery and a bit spicy hops. Flavor is quite hoppy and nicely bitter. Finish is slightly bitter and fairly lasting. A good pale ale and one worth repeating...

Bottled. Pours a medium amber color with a small off-white head. Aroma is malty and a little spicy. Malt and a slight hop bitterness up front. Sort of a plastic flavor going on. Seems a little watered down.

Bottled: Orange farvet. Er let tåget. Har et lyst beige skum, med en høj tæthed. Holder godt. Medium karbonering. Citrus, let frugt and let caramel i aromaen. Smagen er let humlet og blomstret. Har noget sødme og frugtighed. Er lidt bitter i enden. Tør og medium fylde. God balance. Tak til Ungstrup for denne øl fra hans overskudslager.

The aroma has a nice hops to malt balance. The appearance is amber with a large head. The flavor is also balanced. The hops give it a mild bitterness that goes well with the slightly sweet malts and a hint of spice. The palate is thin. Nice pale ale.
