Feb 16, 2008 Bomber. Clear filtered dark copper pour. Nose of old hops, spices, skunk. Taste is alcohol first and foremost. Thick, viscous, sticky, sweet, with a nice hop profile. Almost balanced. Need to have had this one fresh.

Feb 3, 2008 Poured a amber/orange color body with a fluffy white head. The aroma is very hoppy with a sort of odd funkiness that I can’t put my finger on. Flavors are grassy and piney hops with some really annoying aspriny/medicinal notes. Not a fan of this one.

Jan 26, 2008 Deep amber in colour, lingering off-white coloured head, some light patchy lacing. The aroma is incredibly hoppy, quite sweet, moderate alcohol, fruity. The flavour is hot but not distracting, quite sweet, very hoppy, high amounts of alcohol. HIghly bitter mouthfeel, medium body, high carbonation. Finishes long, very sweet, lots of hops, noticable alcohol heat, dry. This one is huge, very chewy and hoppy. With the amount of alcohol and hops in this one they still achieved some balance.

Dec 25, 2007 12 fl. oz. Amber clear colour with a little head. Strange oxidated aroma with notes of wet wood. Also strange flavour of wood, oak and alcohol. Very little bitter but a long aftertaste.

Dec 23, 2007 Beautiful clean amber color; creamy head. Nice aroma, cheesy, malty and hoppy, with some pine resin; also some alcohol. Powerful body strength, immediately warming (but without unwanted traces of alcohol), full malty, with sweet caramel flavor, toffee, extreme hopping, very resiny; the only flaw is a kind of paper aftertaste. In the final, there is also a touch of pear syrup. Excellent.

Dec 19, 2007 Cloudy beige. Yeasty nose with hints of perfume. Bitter, yeasty with lots of hop. Very bitter finish with some honeyish notes. Interesting hop...wish I had more time to get to know this brew as its always tough to fully appreciate a new hop on the first go.
