Draft at the brewpub. Lightly sweet, floral, fruity aroma, some mild toast and citrus notes. Hazy medium golden color with an amber cast and a rocky, foamy head that lasts. Flavor is gently sweet, toasty and malty up front, turning hoppier, with leafy, green, fresh and lightly piney hop flavors, combining with a moderately high degree of bitterness at the finish. Clean, smooth, creamy and lightly resinous on the palate, body is medium. Easy going, pleasant IPA.

Bomber shared at Slutfest 3, Richmond, VA, 4/21/12. Pours a hazy copper with a thin frothy tan head. Decent head retention. Aroma of floral hops and toasted malts. The taste is bitter citrus hops with faint malts. Medium bodied. Fairly pedestrian.

Pours deep hazy gold into a Sam glass. White soapy head with medium retention recedes leaving spider lacing. Tangerine and resin aromas. Medium bodied and sharply bitter front to back. Lasting astringent finish. Not very well balanced.

Bomber: Pours a hazy light orange with a thin white head, aroma has pine and grapefruit, starts and ends bitter with a long fruity ending, ample carbonation, slick mouthfeel.
