jvmiller (288), Bel Air, Maryland, USA May 20, 2007 Updated: Jul 16, 2007 Bitter hops blended with sweet malts. Some sweet citrus up front. Medium body/mouthfeel. Dry bitter finish. Alcohol on the nose, pretty well hidden in the mouth. Drinkable. Mildly acidic. Not a bad double IPA. Not as heavy as Dogfish Head 90 min IPA.
Bockyhorsey (2031), Mesa, Arizona, USA Oct 8, 2008 Bomber courtesy of eaglefan538. Floral aroma on the nose. Copper body with creamy white head. Good citrus flavor, sugary sweetener and not as dry as most IIPA’s can be. Smooth on the palate good brew. Thanks Brian ucusty (1213), Wake Forest, North Carolina, USA Oct 5, 2008 Hazy copper pour with a frothy white head. Crystal malts on the nose. Medium bodied with sweet malts up front. Grapefruity/ piney finish, slightly resinous ratman197 (2358), Arvada, Colorado, USA Oct 2, 2008 Bomber poured a lightly hazy copper with a small lasting amber head. Aromas of carmel, fruittiness, earthiness and a hint of pine. Palate was medium to full bodied and smooth with a lightly dry finish. Flavors of carmel, earthiness, tropical fruit and some herbal notes with a smooth lingering bittersweet finish.
Too sweet for a DIPA in my never to be humble opinion! Gurst (328), Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA Oct 2, 2008 Big hop flavor. Grapefruit, orange, lemon, tree sap, and a little bit of pine. It’s got it all. Thick body, almost sticky, but not quite. Surprisingly drinkable for the wallop it packs. oh6gdx (6334), Vaasa, Finland Sep 29, 2008 Draught@Oliver Twist, Stockholm. Hazy amber colour, big beige creamy head. Aroma is hops, mild spices, some rather earthy and also mildly alcoholic notes. Flavour is hops, grass, mild wood and very bittery dry. Wellbalanced and nice IIPA.
