3.6 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20Bomber. Great nose of piney, grassy, bitter hops. A little caramel malt in there, too. Flavor does not back up the big nose, unfortunately. Muted notes of grass, citrus. Was expecting alot more from this beer, esp after reading all the hype. Not bad, though.

nice aromatics- pine and citrus, pours out revealing the pale malts to come- palate has a great balance and length with hops becoming dominant on the finish. benchmark IPA

Large can. Pours a clear copper color with a large white head. A sweet fruity nose with some oranges. The flavor is very nice: rich resin, oranges, some bitterness, lemon peel, pepper.

Possibly the best beer I have poured from a can. Nice hazy amber colour with thin white head. Quite a good apricot jam aroma with some pine resin. Flavour a mix of cereal, stone fruit with a nice long firm hoppy finish. Balance is most impressive, excellent stuff.

Pours dark amber with a large head.
Aroma of orange marmalade, peaches, rich sweet malt, resinous hops and pepper. Nice.
More resinous hops as a flavour, along with loads of sweet crystal malt and orange marmalade.
Good stuff!

Tall can at Vanessa’s house in Portland. Rich caramel body with thick head. Nose is hoppy, sweet, with malty notes. Taste is plenty of hops, citrus, pine notes. Smooth and not too prickly. Well done, especially for a can.

3.1 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Poored from the tin. Nice orange tinge really pleasant and inviting. No significant carbonation at all. Taste was smooth but flat. Great aroma of grape fruit and citrus. Flavour is a little flatter than the aroma unfortunately and the whole beer just doesn’t live up to first impressions. Nice, drinkable but not great or memorable. Not sold on the can thing.
