Pelican Dorymans Dark Ale

Brewed by Pelican Pub & Brewery
Style: Brown Ale
Pacific City, Oregon USA

Dark brown color with a thin head. Strong aroma of really earthy hops. Damn, smells delicious... Heavy on the malt in the taste with a bit of roastedness. Bitter finish, though it’s a good mix of malt and hop bitterness. Really high quality Brown Ale.

[At Stockholm Beer Festival 2005] A brown beer with a huge brown head. The aroma is sweet and slightly hoppy, while the flavor is just like an English brown ale, primary notes of roasted malt, slight note of caramel, with a dry end, and a thin body.

Medium brown. Rich and smooth texture; mild carbonation; really nice mouthfeel. Chewy-sweet malts with a lot of toast & roast. Mild coffee and dark chocolate. Complementing bitterness plus some background hop aromas. Nice flavors of toast linger. Enjoyable beer.

Dark brown colour. Thin beige head. Hoppy nose with some fruityness. Great bitterness in flavour. Somewhat fruity here too. Some hints of vanilla.

Bottled. Dark amber/copper coloured, small beige head. Bitterish fruity aroma with malty and spicy notes. Spicy flavour with hints of fruits and hops growing in finish. Sweetish aftertaste and sticky palate. Appleish aftertaste.

Bottled, alc. 6.0%
