Commercial Description:
Dry Hopped with a load of Cascade hops grown in the Pacific Northwest. Doggie Style has enough hop character to satisfy hop-heads, but isn’t overpoweringly hoppy. It’s brilliant amber-copper color and pleasant malt flavor comes from the addition of Carastan malts.

12 oz. bottle Pours a very nice amber orange with a good one inch off white head. The head fades after a couple of minutes leaving behind nice lacing. Heavy hops in the nose with both pine and floral notes. A little citrus in there too. It has a certain raw greenness to it that I can’t quite place. Medium carbonation with a rich mouthfeel for a pale ale. Malt flavor is a little biscuity. Hops have a grassy taste. Overall this one is pretty middle of the road for a American pale ale.

Smelled very much of hops with quite a bit of floral accents. The taste was nicely bitterly hoppy. Definitely some floral notes in the flavor as well.

Rich amber color with a frothy white head. Malt and citrus aroma. Tastes good but is a bit watery. Has a good clean hop taste. Decent

PPWD Trade Show. This was OK. I liked it better than the Old Scratch Amber, but then again I don’t like ambers. This beer was very floral both in nose and in flavor. The gentleman who served it mentioned that they use the Cascade hops, the same hops that they use in Bells 2 Hearted Ale (although these are completely different beers). I don’t know why he used the comparison. The beer is easy drinking but not one that I would want to carry.

Bottle. Pours amber/off-orange with a small white head. Aroma is hoppy, as is typical of pale ale. Flavor is slightly hoppy and citrus, and very balanced compared to the aroma. Pretty good beer, but sort of bland.

APPEARANCE: Pours a clear orange-amber color with a medium white head dissipates at an average rate. Medium amount of lacing. AROMA: Light aroma of grain, honey and grapefruit. FLAVOR: Toasted malt grain, and a bit of caramel sweetness. Hints of citrus. MOUTHFEEL: Light-medium body. Lively carbonation. Dry crisp finish. DRINKABILITY: Very easy to drink but not very interesting. NOTES: BBCSD-0902-TimL

I tried this one directly after the IPA of the same company, and in comparison it seemed like the weakest beer I’ve ever tried but now that I think about it, it wasn’t all that terrible. Just much weaker compared to the IPA which is how it should be.

good but not excellent still very drinkable.i appreciate the particularly bitter taste and the moderate hop presence(not particular fan of excessively hoppy beers)
