2006 vintage via Dave. The beer pours to a glowing orange body with a think creamy looking off-white head. The aroma is grassy and floral toasted hops. The flavor is basic bitter grassiness. Toasty malts. The palate is bitter and grassy feeling. Lightly drying. Almost tastes a little stale.
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 1/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bomber from 2006. Clear amber body, small tan head. Dry caramelly aroma with a hint of grassy hops. Quite bitter flavor that starts with resinous plant stem, lemon rind and grass clippings leading to a basic dry carmel backing. The finish has a resinous sappy plant stem thing going on. Big bitter hop flavor but it’s not all that interesting. If you’re into bitter beers then this is your bag.

pours a nice orangish brown glow w/ a beautiful thick off white head w/ nice lacing. Heavily orange aroma w/ some light roast grain notes smell is lightly sweet and a bit hot. Palate is light and easy. Not much to it. Flavor is very boring. A dry hoppy finish on top of a basic light piney flavor. I can do with out this one.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
On tap at the Horse Brass pub in Portland, OR. Light, citric, orangey aroma with some biscuity maltiness and some mild toastiness in the nose. Transparent copper color with a frothy off-white/yellowish head. Citrus, sweet, orange bitter hopped start. Toasted malt middle with a bitter, grapefruity hoppiness to finish. A fair amount of dryness is present in this as well. A bit too dry for my palate. Still, not too bad.
