Jun 24, 2007 Bomber. Drank this one ice cold from my Buckeye Hall of Fame tall beer glass. Goldern pour with quickly dissipating white bubbly head. Big wheat & citus hop aroma hit me fast. As with all 3 Floyds that I’d had to date, the flavors are complex. There is a citusy, IPA-like flavor combined with a strong wheat beer flavor. There is a definite juicy red grapefruit aftertaste that ends bitter. I like it and would drink it again.

Jun 22, 2007 What a great freshing summer brew. When you taste your first swallow and the lemon/grapefruit flavor hits the back of your throat, it’s a pure taste of summer. Two thumbs up

Jun 15, 2007 Updated: Jun 16, 2007I liked the taste, aroma, and feel of this beer. Poured with a decent head. A slightly hazy gold color. A distinct resin citrus, dessert hop aroma. A silky mouthfeel from the hops.

Jun 13, 2007 On tap at Three Floyd’s. Pours a nice hazy golden color with a thick white head. Aroma is of citrus (orange, lemon), hops, and a sweet maltiness. Flavors were very nicely hoppy but not too overpowering. Elements of wheat, caramel, citrus fruits, and a candy-like sweetness. Well-carbonated, refreshingly clean and dry palate. Really interesting stuff, seemed to be somewhere between an IPA and a wheat beer. The best of both worlds. A very sessionable beer.

Jun 11, 2007 Bomber. Clear yellow brew with large sea foam like head, minute lacing. Inviting malty lemon grass aroma. Lemon-bitterness with an orange zest flavor. Bit of a burn on the roof of the mouth. Medium bodied, dry finish, pretty drinkable and this from a guy who is not a fan of wheat in his beer. Would have tasted better under the noon sun today which was near 90 degrees.

Jun 8, 2007 22oz Bomber. Poured into a pint glass with hazy honey colour and a medium offwhite head that dispates quickly. Aroma of grapfruit, orange peel, lemon zest. Flavor begins with a citrus hops and lemon surrounding. Finishing with a refreshing mouthfeel of sweet wheat. Some similiarties to an IPA. Good Brew.

Jun 2, 2007 22oz bottle poured into a pint glass. Pours a slightly cloudy golden color with a tiny beige head. The head dissappears very quickly. No lacing. Aromas include orange, lemon, and a suprisingly big dose of hops. Flavor is very crisp with a lemony bite. A hint of banana in there also. This beer could almost be described as an IPA mixed with a wheat beer. The mouthfeel is very light and refreshing with a good amount of carbonation. A pleasent surprise in the wheat category!

May 29, 2007 Chicago Trip. Saturday 15:00. On tap at the brewery. Hazy dark yellow. Light head. A few tiny particles. Strong full hop aroma. Delicious hoppy wheat, especially for lower ABV. Not a lot of ethers or yeast. Just hops. Seems hoppier than 18 IBU. Delicious hop taste and you can make it a sessional. As an added note I had some back home after an IIPA and the flavour and hops were much more delicate.
