his beer has been one of my favorites for years. Until recently, all the labels were green. These green labeled bombers were the most skunky and cannabis aroma beers of any DIPA that I have encountered. My homebrewer friend tells me that the skunk (or onion) hop is Summit. Anyhow, recently I have seen and purchased a few bombers that have yellow labels and this beer smells and tastes very different. No skunk/onion whatsoever. Does anyone know if the recipe changed? It is still delicious, but I do prefer the more cannabis scented ones....

cheers!

Dunno. They have a website with contact info, btw. I’ll forget to call tomorrow. But, anyway, I noticed the label change. I had one yesterday, actually, and it smelled amazing. It drank pretty good too. I’m looking at my old rating right now, when it was the green label, and I can honestly say that whatever the hell happened, yellow is better. 11/6/2009 5:42:27 PM

Oh. I forget to mention, I popped the cap and my nose sunk into the bottle... It’s like a medicinal marijuana shop. I passed it to my wife and she nodded her head. She said it was beer and weed.
