Jul 18, 2007 Bomber. Pours deep amber with an off-white head. Aroma is strong pineapple hops, citrus, pine, and some caramel. Flavor is resiny hops, grapefruit, cannabis, and tea leaves with a good malt balance. A bit thin in the mouthfeel, but still very nice.

Jul 18, 2007 Picked this up right after DLD this year. Sampled after DL and Black Sun. Aroma is very resiny- caramel and pine. Pours darkish amber with a nice head. Oily, caramel, hops and citrus dominate with a nice pine bitterness. Very solid.

Jul 17, 2007 Pours a rustic amber-orange color with a scant head of milky beige. Laces in droopy sheets. Minimal carbonation. Aromas reek (in a good way) of pine oils and resins, along with some ganja and sticky hop oil. Chewy caramel flavors are drenched in raw hop oils and resinous pine sap. A touch of Mary Jane finishes the deal. Tacky mouthfeel with well-coated lips. Solid bitterness. Quite drinkable for the hophead. I liked it.

Jul 16, 2007 Bottle: Pours a dark ruby color, nice creamy head. The nose is ripe and hoppy, lots of sweet chewy malts and explosive earthy hops along with the usual doughy caramel and spritsy cascade. The flavor is nice and balanced, a full body and mouthfeel, like a good barleywine. I need to pick up another one of these some day.

Jul 15, 2007 Label describes it as a "Mondo Large Red Ale". Pours an inviting deep copper red with a lasting off white head with clinging lacing. Malty aroma with a touch of bread dough. Flavor has a strong malt overtone with a slight hop bite towards the finish. Overall a very nice strong/red ale.

Jul 15, 2007 Bottle. Aroma of caramel malt, citrus hops and lemons. Slightly creamy mouthfeel. Flavor is similar to the aroma, but the malt is quite strong, and the hops are more piney in the finish.
Gregis (1132), Shawnee, Kansas, USA
Jul 11, 2007 Bottle purchased at Corral Liquors, in Granite City, IL. Pours a clear dark orange with a frothy tan beige head. The nose is primarily a malty caramel front backed by piny hops. Medium-bodied and creamy, it finishes bitter. The flavor follows suit with the aroma: heavy caramel malts with a tight, bitter hop finish. A nice anniversary ale.
