Thanks to JordanEllwanger for this

Poured into my pint glass from a bomber

Pours a very nice amber color with a frothy three inch slightly off-white head.Great head retention. As the head resides it leaves marvelous lacing all throughout.

Smell is very floral like with the smell of fine perfume. Very lavender like smell with some hints of spices coming through.

Sweet pine like taste upfront with some bitterness shining through all the way. Slight metallic taste to it with some spicyness. Very dry bitter finish to it that stays for a good minute or two.

Mouthfeel is medium bodied with high carbonation. Good amount of bitterness into it.

A little too bitter to be having more then one of these. Something you should try though at least.

12 oz bottle with a bottling date of 17 May 2016.
Hazy orange-amber body with a very good, off-white head. Patterned sticky lacing left on the glass.
Aroma: quite fruity, mildly pungent, and reeking of "citrus hops".
Flavor: largely follows the aroma. Moderately high bitterness; Hints of spices and soft ripe fruits.
Feel: Medium body and medium+ carbonation.
Overall: a drinkable hop bomb with high but partially hidden alcohol.
