Pours deep orange with a small white head.
Fruity aroma with hops. Also some caramel,citrus and biscuits. Taste was similar, aftertaste was very bitter. Quite heavy body. Easy to drink despite the high alcohol content.

Dec 31, 2009 $2.29 for a single 12oz. / Nicely done my Flying Dog friends! Very strong hops in aroma and taste without being too overpowering. Based upon previous experience (Doggie Style Classic Pale Ale-god awful), I was prepared to be disappointed. Flying Dog really nailed this one! I’m not willing to trust everything Flying Dog produces, but this beer certainly redeedms them from my previous experience.

Dec 30, 2009 It smells sweet and musky like it has been aged in Belgian cellars. The flavors resembles this as well but it is not as smooth as the label says. There is definitely potent flavors of hops and booze on the palate, especially significant at the end.

Dec 29, 2009 7 oz bottle. Pours a deep lightly hazy glowing orange with a thick creamy off white head. Aroma is a very nice blend of caramel and toffee with fresh piney hops. The hops are a bit strong for a pale ale but they don’t take away from the maltiness. Flavor starts sweet and very caramely, gains a nice strong but not bitter hop character, finishing hoppy yet smooth. I’m a bit torn about this because t’s very hoppy for a pale ale but its not too bitter. This is good though for pale ale’ers who don’t love the sharp bitterness.

Dec 26, 2009 7oz bottle from 4-mix pack. Opaque bronze pour with an off-white head. Grapefruit hoppy aroma with a caramel malt backing. BIG flavors, citrus and resiny hops, sweet caramel and bread. Medium body with a nice oily coat that is warming from the high alcohol content going down. Nice American strong that is similar to an imp/double IPA.

Dec 26, 2009 Very hazy dark orange amber with a frothy sticky beige head. Aroma- dark fruit, bitter hop resin, strong toffee, orange rind, alcohol. Very bitter but juicy sweet taste with hot alcohol. Thick body, medium carbonation. Malt body is also very thick and heavy to balance the beer.
