this is a safety net beer, one i can find a lot of places that i like more than other common micros. its buttery like movie theatre popcorn, only there is not corn just popped hops? thats a strange one but the way i feel. stone fruit too, not peach, not nectarine, not apricot but somehow a concoction of all of them. i dig rogue and dont know what a heller bock is but when i’m in louisville at the outlook and the bourbon is too much i reach for a dead guy.

Oct 7, 2008 Bottled, China. Hazy murky brown, quick beige head. Slightly toffeeish nose with marzipan and old barnyard hay. Some berries. Flavor is citric, malty, bitter hops with some nuttiness. Pretty good, but far from heller bock as I know them. More like an IPA maybe, or just a strong ale. Decent mouthfeel with smooth carb.

Oct 5, 2008 22oz. pours copper and not super clear but nice looking head. aroma is earthy with some a nice bit of citrus hop. mouthful is smooth with big malts but finishes with a nice bit of hops. decent balance and good all around drinker... now to be double dead...
