Clear gold pour with a one finger white head. Smells of bready, grainy malt and a little blackberry. The flavor is of gently sweet malt. Blackberry flavor is surprisingly mild. Finishes with a little bitterness. It’s just okay though not something I’d look for again unless options are very limited, though that’s more my style preferences than anything.

The very first beer rating I entered on Ratebeer when I joined back in 2005 was for Rogue Dead Guy Ale. I was sad to see them go under last year though we’d very seldom seen anything new around here from Rogue for the last ten or fifteen years.

Not that any of that made it a great idea to buy an imperial IPA that had to be at least a year old when I spotted it at a liquor store recently, but it’s very likely the last Rogue beer I’ll have.

Anyway, it pours copper colored with a one finger head. Smells of hop resin, citrus, and malt. It tastes of citrus and pine accented hops with solid caramel malt. It’s pretty good though a bit of a muddle and I think it likely the hops have dulled somewhat over the last year. Moderately bitter. Still good.

Hazy orange pour with a lingering off white head. Citrus and resinous hop aroma. The flavor is hoppy, resinous, malty, and kind of cough syrupy. I’m still not certain exactly what makes an IPA / Hazy IPA cross the line intoncough syrup notes for me, but it makes this one a bit underwhelming.

Clear gold pour. Grainy, boozy aroma. Grainy, bready, boozy flavor with a little hops bitterness. Harsh. I didn’t have high expectations, but they still weren’t met.

Mostly clear amber orange pour with minimal head. Aroma dominated by clove and other spices. Flavor is spicy and malty. Dry finish. Very good.
