Nose features big roasted malts with caramel, ripe dark berries, biscuit malt and alcohol. Rich copper colour with a well laced fluffy tan head. This is a beast of a beer. Rich roasted malt, toffee, fruity hops underneath , almonds and dark berries. The body texture is thick and rich. All elements are well integrated. A gem of an East Coast Imperial. None better.

Draft at blind tiger. Pretty good but to tell you the truth I was in the bag and it tasted a lot like regular dead guy.

Hazy amber, frothy white head. Chewy caramel, bready, doughy malts with some solid fruity hopping. Long medium bitter finish and more carmel.

0.75l bottle brought home from The George and Dragon in Barcelona. Been keeping this for a while in the cellar. The label actually says both 9 and 8.2%. Looks really good in the glass with a warm perfect amber cloudy body under a medium sized eventually fading and light bubbly just off-white head. Love the malty sweet caramel nose that's loaded with red sweet fruits and a really suiting oxidized touch. Oh, yeah this smells good! In the mouth this one has a somewhat light oily mouthfeel, you can definitely sense that this has been aged and it's just above soft on the carbonation. Really oxidized in the taste, but still I have to admit that I kinda like how this tastes. More than red fruits, strawberry, wild strawberries with The sweetness you can get from Red currants. Some strong malty caramel sweetness combined with light detergents and it still keeps a nice bitterness towards the finish. A lovely thing, and just wish I could return to the lovely bar where I bought it. Unfortunately I cant. 21.02.2014

750ml as gift, liberally shared around with good company. As XS Dead Guy, at 9%. Reddish light brown, quite a lot of visible carbonation and very little head. Caramel, freshly baked brioche, candied yams, naked alcoholism l in the aroma. Taste starts sweet as would be expected but there’s a pared-down hoppy bitterness in the latter half of the sip. Bitter cooking herbs, turpentine, toffee in the aftertaste which doesn’t work as well as I’d like. Full oily body without so much alcohol burn going down. Very enjoyable but as a ’big beer’ doesn’t quite have the best balance.
