Commercial Description:
JLS Release #34: Double Dead Guy ~ initially released in kegs for JLS accounts, this new elixir will be launched in 750 ml ceramic bottles in the spring of 2008! D2 (our nickname for Double Dead Guy) is a new reincarnation of Rogue's classic Dead Guy Ale. Mahogany in color, full bodied with an amazing mid-palette richness of toffee and caramel. The hops are evident also, with just enough to keep the maltiness in check. The finish lasts > 15 seconds!! D2 is Double the Fun! Malts: 2-row Pale, Munich, C15. Hops. Cascade for boil (because John was out pf Perle) and Crystal for aroma (because John was out of Sterling ...) IBU's approx 50-60. 19.8 Plato Original Gravity, 4.9 Plato Terminal Gravity.

On tap at Brass Tap (Wesley Chapel, FL). Pours a dark amber color with a medium tan head. Rich aroma has lots of sweetness mixed in with the hops. Flavor has a nice balance between the sweet, rich toffee/caramel dried fruit profile and the hop bitterness. The alcohol is fairly pronounced. Excellent prolonged aftertaste.

Butter’s 4th cellar reduction. Hazy red amber with a thick tan head and good lace. Sweet caramel aroma with licorice. Sweet taste with lingering metal notes, hides alcohol well.

Bottle at the Fourth Butters’ Cellar Clearance Event. Very sweet aroma. Malty bill with hop profile. Some alcohol burning on the finish. Awesome bottle, but expensive. I think this is going to get much better with age.

750mL bottle at Butters’ 4th Cellar Reduction. Pours a lacing pale head with a deep amber body. Hop and caramel nose. Taste is caramel, biscuit, and great hops. Good sticky sweet, bitter finish.

I had this at the Sunset Grille in Boston. Nice dark color to this one. Has a strong malt flavor with hints of caramel. Has kind of a strong bite in the end, but what else can you expect from something that’s close to 10% abv?

Cloudy amber color with no head. Aroma of caramel, toffee, and malts. Flavor of caramel, malts, toffee, and a grapefruit ending. Very nice!

Draught at Rogue Ales Public House, SF Deep amber with a white head. Very malty and fruity aroma with some hoppiness. Soft, smooth and oily palate. More like a barley-wine.
