Sep 21, 2009 This bottled brew from a bottle shop poured a small sized head of foamy fine to medium sized white colored bubbles that were mostly lasting and left behind a hazy softly carbonated light orange brown colored body. The mild aroma was cascade hoppy and floral. The crisp mouth feel was tingly at the start and at the finish. The flavor contained notes of malt and strong hops. Delicious and one I would certainly buy again.

Sep 20, 2009 From a 22oz bottle poured into a shaker at 48°. Color is a pale gold with a slight haze. Carbonation is good with a nice tight white head. Aroma is hoppy and fruity with a sweet citrus coming out. Taste is smooth and citric. Starting with a medium body it goes down with a creamy feel. Finish comes out sweet with a mild malt feel then the citrus rolls in with orange and lemon rind, then a bold bitterness. After taste is dry with an almost sticky bitterness lingering on leaving a pine like taste. This is a very good IPA, it has a nice citrus flavors that don’t just overpower you with grapefruit the way far too many out there do.

Sep 20, 2009 Bomber. Hazy murky light orange with white to beige head. Aroma sweet hops with fruit and earthy tones. Clean tongue with medium body but sticky. Taste is also fairly malty but ends bitter and long.

Great aroma of hops (simcoe), pineapple, papaya, peach and pine.
The flavour is not as good as the aroma. Its dry with notes of hops, fruit, pine, caramel and grass. It has a long bitter after taste.

Sep 16, 2009 12 oz. bottle courtesy of my son. Pours a clear amber-orange with an average off-white foamy head that lasts throughout and leaves excellent lacing. Great citrus and floral aroma that hits you every time you tip the glass. The flavor is a big hop taste of grapefruit, tangerine, floral, and pine. Nicely balanced with caramel sweetness yet still allowing the hop bitterness come through and linger to the end. Medium bodied. Great IPA.

Fruity, hoppy taste with notes of apricots, orange, grapefruit, pine needles and resin. Loads of piney, citrussy hops in a fairly bitter finish. Medium body, with some caramel sweetness. Lovely well balanced IPA with an impressive hop character.

Sep 16, 2009 Bottle (in NZ). A bright and clear copper, no head. Lots of tropical fruit on the clear nose, with some floral notes as well. Plenty of bitterness all the way through the swallow, and those hops stay with you well after the finish. Tropical fruits again in the flavour, but swome good juicy touches from the malt as well. A very good new world IPA.
