Does the name justice to say the least. Amber brew with a good sticky white head. Aroma is promising pure tropical fruit juice, flavour delivers the promised peaches, passion fruit and other sweet fruit but doesnt leave without a solid grassy, piney bitterness to finish things off. Body is rather light and the beer goes down too easy for it’s ABV.

One of my absolute favorites. If you are not a fan of hops then this is not the beer for you. Not a complex beer at all- it gets straight to the point- hops. Very piney aroma and it tastes just like it smells. Nice prickly carbonation without much head. The hop aroma burns your nostrils as you sip from the glass, but the flavor has more of a tang than a bitterness. A very well-done, perfectly balanced ale that’s worth waiting to get only once a year. I also toured the Troegs brewery in Harrisburg. A very nice, down-to-earth bunch of people I must add.

Bottle into pint pint glass. Pours a dark orangey color with medium carbonation and a great 3 finger solid, fluffy off-white head. Lacing is also very nice. The aroma is incredible: you get just a touch of the bitterness on the nose but mostly it’s sweet, grassy, resinous and a little big floral hops. The flavor is a bit more subdued than the aroma but just as tasty. Thin mouthfeel with only a slight bitterness over the palate.

Bomber courtesy of birdiebeagle. Pours a beautiful orange amber color. Moderate white head with good retention and decent lacing. Aroma is fabulous, with lots of piney and floral hops. Flavor is piney hops with plenty of bitterness in the finish. Not as complex and delightful as the aroma, but still a nice IPA. Mouthfeel is a touch on the watery side, but not bad. Plenty of burn in the finish. Nice IPA.

Poured from a 22oz. bottle into a pint glass. The color is a clear, deep amber color with a very foamy white head with some really nice lacing. The smell is very hoppy, smelly like fresh cut grass the floral hop flavor is very present. Very good flavor. The taste is brimming with hops and some really nice citrus feel to go along. Is very tart but sweet with some with nice bitterness to even out the fruit flavor. The feel of this beer is like an IPA even though it is a amber ale. It is full of flavor and feel smooth going down with just a slight aftertaste.

This is an amazing beer...when fresh...the aroma jumps out as soon as the bottle is cracked...hops are intense and made almost juicy by the significant malt backbone...I want more..............................................

orange color, nice lacey head, sweet citrus pine hop mixture, I really like the carbonation mix, great aftertaste. only thing better than the first one is the second one
