Flying Dog Double Dog Double Pale Ale

Bottle. Amber colour with a medium-sized white head. Hoppy aroma with notes of malt and grapefruit. The flavour is hops, grapefruit, pine, malt, toffee, bitter with some sweetness. Medium-bodied, finish is long, dry and bitter. Very good brew from Flying Dog.

12oz bottle vintage 09ii, they really dialed this batch! I’ve been a big fan of DD for many years but this batch might be their best yet. Awesome color, head and hop aroma. Very balanced and you would never know it was 11.5% until you downed a few :) I would love to try this batch on tap. However, the 09FF batch was TERRRIBLE!! I don’t know what they did but they went from their worst batch to their best back to back!

Pours clear amber from the 12oz. bottle: Nose is hops (IPA style): earthy, grassy, citrusy, and floral. Flavors are similar, but with added caramel, brown sugar, and maybe some molasses. Oily with medium carbonation. The bitterness in this beer is right on. Drinkability: Moderate bitter with heavy hops. Pretty solid. Rebuy: Yes. #186 on 05112009, DG.

Pours a somewhat murky brown, almost like dirty water. It is not in an unappealing fashion, though. Nice 1" to 1 1/4" head that dissipates quickly. Smells of hoppiness and your grandma’s soap. Also, some iodine and bubblegum buried in there. Despite the off-putting nose this is a drinkable beverage. It’s got a nice balance to it that was unexpected. A little bit of sweetness in front that blends very nicely into the hops on the backside of it. Just a little hot on the end, though. Feels quite nice in the mouth. A little on the creamy side, with a bit of bite from the hops. As far as pale ales go this is very decent. If you’re into the hops, I’d recommend it to you. Personally, I don’t dig overly hoppy tastes. I could, and most likely will, drink many more of these. (As long as another bottle of stout doesn’t get in the way.)

Barnás vörös színe és vastag fehér habja van,ami szépen feltapad a tulipán oldalára.Fantasztikus az illata!Összetett gyümölcsös,citrusos,alkoholosan édes és fenyőtobozos.Íze is igen furmányos,bonyolult.Egészen édesen,likőrösen nyit amiben egy kevés muskotály is van.Utána jön a komló keserűje és fenyőgyantás íze ami teljesen összezavarja az ízlelőbimbókat.Utóíze száraz és gyümölcsös,picit zsibbasztja a nyelvet. Az alkohol erősen melegít és bódít míg erős teste is megdolgoztat.Fárasztó nap után,lefekvés előtt ajánlatos fogyasztani.Biztos hogy szép álmokat biztosít!

Bottle picked up at a Aakjærs, Esbjerg, Denmark, Oct 2009 consumed 26-10-09 Pours amber with a boiled sweet nose. There are hops though they are not overy present. Quite syrupy and thick in the mouth. Big hops actually do start to show, there is a slick bitterness in fact disregard my earlier hop comment this is actually quite hoppy and tasting more like an IPA rather than a pale, though it is rather sweet.

Pale amber, small head. Citrusy and very, very sweet. Interesting but a bit much.

355 ml bottle. Slightly hazy reddish orange colour, thin white head. Citurs fruits, berries and plenty of hops in the aroma. The flavour is sweetish, malty, with nuts and citrus fruits, and a strongly bitter, lingering hoppy finish.
