Description

Flying Dog Brewery is a craft brewery located in Frederick, Maryland. It was founded in 1990 as a brewpub in Aspen, Colarado by George Stranahan and Richard McIntyre. Demand for Flying Dog beers quickly grew beyond the brewpub's capacity. In 1994, the company opened a 30-barrel brewery (Broadway Brewing Company) in Denver. Looking to expand again in 2006, Flying Dog purchased Frederick Brewing Company in Frederick, Maryland and began producing beer in both Maryland and Colorado. In December 2007, Flying Dog announced that it was closing the Denver brewery and would solely produce beer in its Frederick facility.

Bottled. Yellow gold pour. Sweet malts, a bit of citrus but really a bit cereal grainy and not the best offering.

Poured a hazy gold with fluffy white head. More hops than wheat in this one with a bit of lemon acidity. Good.

I wanted to like this but I bought six and now I own 60 Oz of american pale ale with a spoonful of old bay. Salty as hell. Good try?

Maybe useful for cooking? I don’t know
