Bomber. Sweet, floral aroma but not overly hoppy. Beautiful, hazy, cloudy, reddish amber. Small, thin, off-white head. Nice doily lace. Not bad. Sweet with a moderate hop profile. Citrusy. Very nice. Pleasant surprise. My favorite Full Sail beer.

in bottle. light amber color with lasting beige head. hoppy earthy nose. high malt content with delightful finishing hops. A very interesting ipa - not just about cramming hops into a bottle.

17.11.06 Bomber (2006). Clouded orange-amber with medium sized head of dense, lumpy foam. I can’t imagine an IPA looking any nicer and I’m encouragedby the beer’s cloudiness and slight visible sediment. Aroma is grapefruit citrusy with little malt presence. There are persistent notes of plastic/bandaid but they do seem to get mixed up in the flowery and perfumey hops as it warms - that’s great for the aroma, but the flavor is too perfumey and harsh. Body is of medium heft and finishes brutally bitter and sharp - that part’s fun.

Very flowery/hoppy aroma. Great. Cloudy orange. Could get like a 12 in the aroma category. This is a really good IPA. Very biting and fresh, with lots of hops from start to finish.

Nice looking beer... dark amber color with big white head that laces nicely. Aroma is lightly citrusy with lots of pine and some grass. Flavor is somewhat abrasively piney. Nice and full texture for an IPA but finishes a little soapy.

bomber. decent thick pour, darker than most single ipa. balanced with alot of overtones but nothing really unique. easy to drink but it’s not going to win mvp of the single ipa stead.

This is a very nice and inexpensive IPA. Pours a very bright orange amber with a thin white head. Aroma is full of citrus, primarily grapefruit, with hints of pine. Flavor is bittersweet with a piney long lasting bitter finish. It is a bit unbalanced, but pretty good overall.

Draft at Toronado. Dark copper color with bright white lacing. Grassy, Malt aroma. Grapefuity and hop forward to the point of being a bit harsh. Bitter finish
