Commercial Description:
Brewed in the tradition of centuries old Scottish brewing methods, "Road" is reminiscent of a Porter. Road Dog is a rich, malty beer with hints of chocolate and licorice resulting from the use of four prized malts.

Bottle thanks to Fidel, pours dark cola brown with minimal cream colored head. The nose is exactly as the comm. description; malty with hints of licorice and chocolate. The flavor is similar but not as rich. A bit thin on the palate. Decent beer.

Pours a deep ruby with a nice white head. Lots of malts on the nose. Roasted malts come through with the flavor as well as a touch of coffee. Finishes dry and clean. Pretty drinkable. Nice porter

355ml bottle (Cracked Kettle, Amsterdam)
Deep reddy brown, tiny off-white head. Cocoa powder aroma. Refreshing palate, pleasant carbonation. Fairly burnt taste. Long burnt finish. Decent hops, some raw fruity hop flowers detected. Fairly well balanced. Tasty, but I feel I’ve tasted it many times before. Very easy to drink.

A very light flavored porter. Roasted malt and coffee falvor with a dry finish. Pours dark with very little head. Good enough but not Flying Dog’s best...
