Commercial Description:
The Devil Dog will chew you up and leave you whimpering for more, At 98 IBU’s and 5.2 pounds of hops to the barrel it is an all out assault on the senses. Devil Dog Started as a labor of love but quickly took on a life of its own, leaving us drooling like Pavlov’s dogs at the mere mention of its name. Triple dry hopped and at 10% ABV, more than one of these bad boys will cause you to howl at passing strangers and chew up your toys, or anything else you can get your sharp little teeth on. Hops: Columbus, Northern Brewer, Ahtanum, Cascade and Simcoe Malt: Pale, Carmel and Munich

Bottle sampled at mgumby10’s thanks dchmela: This is a medium-orange pour, that suggests that the beer is going to taste good. I wouldn’t say it is a hop BOMB, however, there is a solid profile here. Aroma is earthy bordering spicy, and floral. Flavor is unripened citrus rind, nice malt backbone to keep the balance. Plus, I really enjoy drinking beers from Idaho.

Courtesy dchmela. Pours an amber orange color, with a small off white head. The aroma is a rich mix of hops, citrus, malt, and cinnamon spice. The flavor is pretty big on the hops. There was some traces of malt for balance, but the hops seemed to dominate in a bold way. Big hop bitterness in the finish with traces of grapefruit citrus for some added flavor. Pretty solid IIPA.

Pours an orange marmelade color. Aroma is resinous and slightly malty, with a slight toasted component. The flavor is hoppy, yet surpringly balanced and well integrated. solid.

Poured a hazy caramel color with a small, off white head that left nice lacing on the glass. Aroma of pine, caramel malts, citrus fruits, floral hops, and some tropical fruits. Taste was sweeter, with the caramel up front, orange peel, citrus fruits, pine, tobacco, and a bitter finish, with a little alcohol there as well.

22oz bottle acquired in trade with riversideAK (thanks!). Poured a deeper and cloudy golden color with a small sized off white head. Nice hoppy aromas that included citrus, melons, tropical fruits, with some caramel. Tastes of citrus, fruity, pine, and caramel. Some alcohol in the finish.

Thanks to hopdog for sharing this one. Pours a lightly hazy copper with golden notes and a medium bubbly/creamy off white head that left some lacing. Aroma was the bowl of those hard candies your grandmom had sitting out, hop candy, sweet caramel malt, light alcohol, tropical fruits, mixed citrus, lots of American hops. Flavor was earthy, pine, grapefruit, orange, caramel, nice hop bitterness, toasted malt, toffee, lots of fresh hop flavor,

Super sweet caramel smell from the off white head and hazy cloudy orange pour. Mouthfeel is huge...a big round malty sweet thick syrupy glob of hops, sugarcane, biscuis soaked in gin, rye, pumpernickel....not an aggressive IPA--but certainly intense. Big on flavour, kind of light on the finish--but well made and would certainly drink again.

22oz bottle. Pours a deep, dark rudy/amber color. Aroam was mainly sweet malt and citrus hops. Really thick for a IIPA. The flavor was sweet and earthy with thicky maly presence.
