Originally a Wild Dog release commemorating our 10th anniversary. Double Dog Double Pale Ale became here to stay in 2009. Could you control such a beast?
This is a big beer that calls for equally big foods. Flavor notes: Citrus hops with sweet malt and subtle alcohol burn (like a kiss on the cheek) Pairs with: Extra sharp aged Cheddar and stinky Blue cheese; smoked brisket; spicy foods with chili or cayenne pepper; earthy desserts like carrot cake.

Re-rate 5/18/12: Bottle sample at a Beer & Beyond strong beers tasting at Norma Jean. Clear amber with a white head. Aroma of hops, piney, citric and slightly stale, malt and a bit of caramel. Sweet malty flavor with caramel, a bit of honey, fruity notes and a strong, hoppy, piney bitterness in the finish with a bit of alcohol. Medium to full-bodied. 7/3/7/3/14=3.4
Bottle at a tasting. Thanks Dror. Clear deep amber with an off-white head. Aroma of piney and slightly grapefruity hops and a bit of malt. Flavor has some caramelly sweetness but mostly bitter piney hoppiness and a bit of alcohol. Medium-bodied. 6/3/7/3/13=3.2

Bottle 33cl. Red colour with a toasted non persistant head due to the alcohol that this beer has. Aroma to fresh hops and strong bitter taste from start to finish. Quietly malty and sweet. A big surprise with this beer.

Notes from tasting a while ago: something in the smell is not nice, not sure what it is. Taste nicely bitter but also some kind of additional, underlying extra taste that makes the beer a little less good.

Bottle from Alko. Originally rated on 1.11.2009. Boozy and slightly unbalanced. Alcohol burns through a bit too much, but otherwise actually quite tasty

I love their bottles. Itβs a nice hoppy strong ale. Lots of alcohol, but it helps the beer in stead of bothering it. Bit of citrus in the smell and taste. Nice beer.

Bottle at Brewdog Aberdeen. It pours clear red-amber with a thin foamy off-white head. The nose is pine, resin, orange and sweaty socks. The taste is full of wood, resin, massive hop bite, astringent, orange, mango, leather and stale bread with obvious alcohol. It is rough around the edges and aggressive in the mouth. Crazy stuff.
