750 ml Bottle. Wow, an extremely powerful version of their regular Dead Guy Ale. Pours very similarly to Dead Guy Ale, an almost crimson amber color with a nice white head. Aroma of malts, notes of hops. Flavor is alcohol sweetness. This beer has made me want to re-experience how the regular Dead Guy is.

Tap @ OTH. Pours amber/brown with beige head. Aroma is yeasty (barnyard) and malty. Taste had a significan amount of floral and piney hops close to an IPA. Light notes of caramel malts and the definite Rogue signature taste.

Fully clear reddish-amber; dirty amberish head. Dull old cookies nose, very bereft of hops. Ethanol’s there, however. Wry, just-not-bitter flavour, hinting at hops over cookies with a walnut peel hint. Ends on alcohol. Medium to well-bodied, slick; alcoholwarming. Especially for Rogue, dull. He’s really dead, this guy.

750 ml bottle has got to be one of the best I’ve seen. Wish the contents were up to the challenge, though. Pours an orangish/reddish copper with a big and fizzy tan head. Aromas are sweet caramel with a touch of pine and grass and a hint of oranges. Flavor is very sweet and malty... has a lot of caramel, a touch of orange and grassy hops and an overwhelming alcohol presence that creates warmth and buries some of the flavors. Still, it is a pretty cool bottle.

Bottle at R.F.D., Washington DC
Hazy amber color. It’ s a strong American Ale, with better flavor than aroma, powerful but not extremely interesting.

Dull amber brown with a big, rocky head. Smells a little big metallic, caramelly. Firm body. Caramelly/earthy taste, tasty and subtlely complex malts, and I like the dry, alcoholic finish.

(Draught at Stockholm Beer Festival, 26 Sep 2008) Dark amber colour with brief, beige head. Malty, fruity nose with notes of dried fruit and orange peel, slightly vinous. Malty, fruity taste with dried fruit, caramel and a decent spicy bitterness in the finish. Full bodied, rather sweet and vinous with warming alcohol coming through as it gets warmer. Nice balance. Powerful and tasty beer.

Bottled@SBWF2008. Amber colour, small beige head. Aroma is caramel, hops, nuts and some mild notes of grass. Very fudgeish hints too. Flavour is hops, alcohol, some caramel malts. Peaches and pineapple along with grass and nectar in the aftertaste. Also some mild alcohol sweetness is there in the aftertaste.

(Bottle 75 cl) Clear deep amber golden with a tall and lively dense head with good retention and some lacing. Burned caramel in the nose as well as some alcohol. Quite full-bodied with notes of burned caramel, nuts and plenty of roasted malt. Rather bitter finish with plenty of alcohol. 180908
