3.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Light with a bite. hops gets a little raspy. Light body, light color, crisp and refreshing. modest white head. on tap at the brewpub
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
Pours a golden color with a decent creamy head. Aroma isn’t very strong and taste is a little off with a strange aftertaste. Not my favorite, but not terrible. There are better beers from bend and probably better beers from 10 Barrel.
3.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
amber gold pour with slight brown tint - lots of tight white head - aroma of pine/orange/citrus - nice pine/sour grapefruit taste turns into a bitter orange peel aftertaste with hints of pine - a bit thin but but the dry hopping really helped to give it a nice flavor profiel
3.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Bomber from Brewforia. Pours light amber gold with a 4 finger creamy/foamy whiteish head. Aroma is citrus. Body is about medium. Flavor is citrus with perhaps a hint of grapefruit rind. There’s also tangerine or something similar. Not huge and harsh, but rather mellow. Finishes smooth, fairly light, and nicely bitter. That said, it cries out to be imperialized.
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
22oz bottle shared by Tona. Rating #25. Real hazy golden color with a little orange mixed in. Light grain with a nice little hop presence. Tasty, moderate bitterness up front, but it had a pretty aggressive aftertaste. Good stuff. (2280)
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle. Not sure if this is a "brand new style" but it is restrained and tasty! Good well behaved head. Lacing. A bit of sediment in hazy dark gold beer. Moderate citrus aroma. Smooth body. Lots of citrus flavour particularly in the aftertaste. I could indeed session a few of these.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Sampled in a bomber. Poured bright orange with a quickly dissipating head on it. Really smooth hops and crisp malts. Served at room temperature and it really opened up the aroma
3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
Dusted gold with pure white head. Hazy. Lots of citrus and some slight dank. Very thin mouthfeel and slightly disjointed. Lots of citrus flavor. Nice bitterness.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
draft. Nice combination of citrus and hop bitterness. I guess I see where they’re going with the ISA thing. I’d drink several of these at a time if given the opportunity.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Bomber from Whole Foods Portland. Difficult to rate this as an IPA because is really isn’t. Its more like halfway between an IPA and a Pale Ale. Lets just say this: if this would be called a Pale Ale the ratings would be much higher. If you enjoy this for what it is - a session IPA - it is very good. Nice crisp, dry hoppy beer with a citrus backbone, made for drinking in quantity while watching football. In my perfect world, this is what a Bud should taste like.
