molassesfan (196), Wilmington, North Carolina, USA Jun 9, 2007 Bomber. Dark orange with decent head formation. Aroma and flavor of citrus piney hops. A bit of malt to back up the ridiculous amount of hop flavor. I tried to drink this while taking a shower and it is just too strong in flavor for the role of a shower beer. Would be good with a flavorful meal though.
grimreeser (662), Minnesota, USA Aug 20, 2008 Pours a nice amber, nice lacing. Big aroma, citrus and pine. Nice sweetness, but the bitterness is a bit too much. I’ll pick some up for you OG. nqualls (113), Tennessee, USA Aug 19, 2008 4 pack of 12 ozers purchased at Brawley’s in Charlotte. Poured into a Karmeliet tulip glass a hazy orange/gold color with a one finger whitish head. Medium amount of lacing. Aroma was awesome. Nose was a combination of citrus pine. Flavor was well balanced with a slightly sweet malt taste up front with the bitter hops on the end. Medium-full bodied with good carbonation. Great Beer. cgarvieuk (2302), Edinburgh, Scotland Aug 18, 2008 Bottle in Shefiled...copper,rich piney hop resins,sweet resiny american hop, tart and juicy gameface23 (77), Haverhill, Massachusetts, USA Aug 15, 2008 I poured this one and I knew I was in for a good time. Hazy orange-red with a bubbly, cream colored head. The smell was amazing: hop dominated with equal parts grapefruit and pine. Beautiful mouthfeel. The only negative was that the finish was a bit too bitter. LIGONIER (4), Ligonier, Pennsylvania, USA does not count Aug 15, 2008 This beer was a surprise. I’m always looking for that Big Hop beer that will knock my socks off, and this is the real deal. Aroma was pure hops, like freshly cut from the field. Smooth going down the the bitter hop ending that opens the senses.
