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.

Appearance: Pours a clear, medium brown body with a small white head. Smell: Aroma of dry, toasty biscuits and citrus with just a hint of caramel. Taste: Mild, unassuming biscuit malt flavor with a just a bit of caramel sweetness. Light citrus hops. Fairly mild bitterness accentuated by the carbonation. Mouthfeel: Medium-thin body. Moderate carbonation. Drinkability: It’s not exactly what I’d call a "classic". Then again, "okay" doesn’t look as good on a bottle label.

From a bottle. Pours a light amber color. This a a decent tasting brew from FD. Mouthfeel is a little thin and watery but is very drinkable. Not overpowering in either the malts or the hops. This could be a good crossover beer for people not into craft beers.

Amber in color with a white head that didn’t last long, and left specks of lacing. Smell is nice, a good amount of hops in the nose with a sweet malty aroma playing second fiddle. Taste is borderline 4, it’s good but after the smell I really expected to be tasting as much as I was smelling, a little disappointed, but still pretty good mind you. A little watery in the mouthfeel, average carbonation and medium body. Pretty drinkable and a nice beer here, I just was left wanting a little more. Try it, it may be just right for you.

Very crisp pale, with a mild citric quality that seems to push the beer closer to a pils than to an English or American style pale. Pretty refreshing, though not with a huge amount of character (and with a thin mouthfeel that waters down too quickly).

Appearance is pretty good actually. The head is nice, but the lacing doesn’t stick. Brown in color. Smell is hoppy and slightly fruity. Taste is a little watery and a little skunky. Mouthfeel is pretty watery, but I guess even water can be good. Drinkability isn’t so great.

Bottle at home ... copper ... light sweet american hop ... Over fizzy ... good fruity sweet hop resins ... reasonably juicy
