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.

Pours orange copper with light off-white head. Malt, yeast and light hop aroma... flavor follows nicely with a caramel presence.

Pours an orange caramel color with a medium beige head. Faint aroma of malty bread, biscuits and light hops. Taste is bready with caramel hints and malty hops. Average.

Had on tap at local bar. Pretty copper color. Taste was sweet malty bread. Incredibly drinkable. I liked this.

A copper color with good head. A little watered down without a clear flavor, some orange detected but not much else. Not something I would pay for.

pours a golden copper with a one finger fluffy off white head. aroma is biscuits, malt with a little roast to it, and some hops. has a light body with nice lacing and good carbonation. flavor is the same as aroma with a little dry hop aftertaste. also has a little bite to it at the end. an average session-able beginners beer. also has a little more malt and a little grain flavor as it warms.

Bottle. Not the best amber from an appearance perspective; a little too orangey. Watery palate -- watery in general. Bland with no clear flavors, mild bitterness on the finish. Didn’t get the toasty or the malty. I wanted to like it more, New Holland!

Clear body with a copperish golden brown hue. Malt taste is subtle, but yet lingers, a good lingering I might add. Hops are noted but very soft and and the end.

Clear and coppery look, under a thin layer of milky white froth. Malty noseherbal, a bit vegetal, earthy, but not too beefy. Nice, though. Minimal hops here. Taste: slick and sweet, a tasty grab on the tongue. Medium bodied, tidy malt finish. Good mouthfeel, if not great. Nice heft, hangs well in the mouth, nearly juicy. Definitely a must try for lovers of malty amber ales. Not the sort of thing I’d normally spend $9 a 6-pack on, but, you know, had to give it a shot. And I will enjoy the remainder of the 6’er.
