Commercial Description:
Sundog is an ale whose amber color is as deep as the copper glow of a Lake Michigan sunset. Its Biscuit malt and Fuggle hops give it a toasty character and a subtle, malty sweetness. We believe Sundog is the deepest, richest amber you'll find anywhere.

12 oz bottle. Pours amber with a white head. Sweet caramel aroma with citrus. Flavor is weak and grainy with toasted malts. Aroma is decent, but the flavor’s off for me.

12 oz bottle purchased as part of a beers of summer 10 pack at World Market. Pour is hazed orange copper with a one inch off white head. Aroma of softly sweet caramel maltiness, with a nice almond nutiness behind that. Nice warming nose. As the beer warmed to room temp, there was some soggy cardboard. Taste is the caramel malt with a grassy mineral grassiness behind that. The almond is present, nicely drying out the finish. Palate has a medium mouth feel with a high level of carbonation. The finish has a touch of cardboard, which detracts a bit. Overall, an easy drinking amber that started pretty nice and flattened out a bunch as it warmed. I am guessing this was not a terribly fresh bottle.

BPW #66 On tap at New Holland Brewing Company. Appearance is clear amber. The aromas and flavors are biscuit malt, a bit overly simple.

Bottle. Pours hazy amber with a one finger beige head. The nose is malt and toast with some fruit. The taste is biscuits, malt and earthy hops with some faint bittering hops in the finish. Medium bodied. OK Amber.

Dan’s Bachelor Party Extended Weekend Rating #61 of 90. On tap at New Holland in Holland, MI. Pours clear reddish orange. Light and crisp and not much more to say. Just ok, but refreshing.
