Bomber received in a Christmas advent calendar

Sediment and large chunky floaters in the bottom of the bottle...I press on as pour a glass into a teku. Clear oranger amber with micro carbonation. one finger off white sticky foam cap. Good lacings

Aroma of tropical fruits, bit of mango, whiff of spiciness

Hop taste is spicy, peppery, malt, bit of dank

Bitter bite, lingers

Picked up a bomber at Craft Beer Hop Stop on 11/5/16 for $6.99. No bottling date visible. Cared for in my beer fridge since purchase.

Poured first half of the bottle into a Spiegelau glass, was golden with a very nice white head that is leaving lacing behind.

Nose has a hint of tropical hops and somewhat peppery.

Taste is kind of inconsistent, some sips are peppery, some are tropical, and some heavy citrus pith.

Feel is light to medium bodied and crisp.

Overall a mixed bag, not bad but not great.

Tasted in a Spiegelau IPA glass from a 1 pt 6 oz bottle on January 4, 2017. Look is orange gold with a nice thick head but there is way too much stuff floating around. Not appealing at all. Smell is ok. Taste is not up to the standards of the other varieties in the series. Bad bottle? Bad batch? Not sure but this bottle is a hot mess.

Aroma is citrus, hops and tropical fruit/mild Capri Sun. The flavor is citrus, Mild/medium Capri Sun, slight fruit funk, malts and a long and bitter/very dry finish.

Appearance: pours a hazy orange color with a big fluffy 2" head.

Smell: light floral tones rise from the glass.

Taste: caramel, orange, mango, pears, and a floral hop bitterness.

Mouthfeel: medium bodied beer. Light crispness from start to finish.

Overall: an easy to quaff IPA that has a decent flavor profile.

Darker gold, nearly amber. Mild haze. Small, but twice poured by the bartender, head that settles in like a dome. Nice blanket of lace initially. Ring lace thereafter.

Good blend of so lightly sweet pale malt with a floral citrusy hop.

The flavor is more dominantly bitter than the smell suggests. Good malt base, albeit darker trasting than the appearance. Highly carbonated which is only mitigated slightly by the above average body.

Poured from a 22-ounce bottle a clear pale orange under a 2-inch thick white head which has good retention and leaves splotchy lace. Chunky floaties in bottle and now in the glass. Allow to settle, but really? Aroma is milder than expected with mostly grapefruit, tangerine, and tropical fruits. Flavor is pithy and bitter with some dankness.
