Nose of corn syrup bread candi sugar and a little grass. Poura golden thin head visibly under carbonated. Syrupy sweet up front to start bread corn candi sugar and some grass. Carbonation is low. Well its an imperial cream ale. Interesting. Not bad.

Bomber from "Made in Oregon". Pours hazy orange gold with a 4 finger creamy/fizzy white head. Aromas of light pitted fruit, orange, and kandi. Full bodied. Flavor is mixed. Definitely kandi. Definitely some grass. Beyond that there’s some veg/herb. It’s a little bit Belgian yeast/spicy. There’s a dusty malt that pops up. Although there’s sugar, it comes across fairly balanced. I’m strongly thinking of a nice Belgian tripel. Baaaaad Bunny.

22 oz. bottle, pours a murky orange with a tiny white head. Aroma of celery, vegetal notes, perfume and floral notes. Flavour of sweet malts, some vegetal notes, floral notes, cotton candy and creamsicle. Bizarre flavour profiles, barely drinkable. Somewhat offensive.
3.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Aroma is slightly malty and hoppy.
Pours a creamy cloudy caramel blond colour. Low carbonation and few bubbles but there are bubbles forming on side of glass.
First sip reveals slighlty smokey flavor and sour cream with medium sweetness. It has a very smooth mouthfeel. Very unique. My first imerial cream ale. Great experience. Lingering sour glaze like aftertaste.
3.1 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle, pours bright yellow, aroma is faint, but there is lots of flavour, it has a harsh body and a bitter finish, this one was actaully enjoyable, just from appearance of the bottle I was expecting a dark ale, but this one was interesting, worth the try.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle: Orangish, a little dull, slight haze, moderate frothy white head, fairly nice lacing. Mealy
nose, pale breadiness, a little sharp. Pretty sweet up front, strong breadiness (pale), and also mealy, but not
too bad. Very smooth, however. Has a heavy grassiness to it too. Makes me crave some sort of salad.
Better than I expected.
