Slightly hazy, orange coloured with a good firm off-white head. Taste is bitter, has some caramel, some hops, bit earthy. Not really impressive. marcus (1885), Sacramento, California, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jan 12, 2009 This reddish amber beer poured into a trappist glass with a decent beige head and a floral malt aroma. There is a significant malt presence producing a toffee flavor, but there is some serious hopping that complements but, perhaps, overwhelms the malt, leaving an astringent taste on the palate.

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jan 12, 2009 Bottle at home - New Years Tasting. Clear dark amber (mahogany) - white head. Sweetness, high sweetness, syrup, roasted, ryebread, brunkager, mould, rotten caramel, medium hoppy, bitterness, high malty. Unbalanced. Braudog (3770), Dayton, Ohio, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jan 11, 2009 What a freakin’ cool bottle! This massive beer poured copper and large-headed. The aroma is tangy, metallic. Despite the bigness of the beer, this is a smooth drinker, silky even, with a hint of bitter apple, but otherwise a very even-keeled malty brew. (#3468, 11/2008)

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jan 10, 2009 On tap at Novare Res. I’m not a huge fan of the regular dead guy...it’s kind of ketchup like. This stuff however is MUCH better. The D2 is a malt masterpiece. Toffee, caramel, and everything I expected the dead guy to be. tomthompson89 (1489), Toronto, Ontario, Canada

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jan 7, 2009 Pours reddish-tan amber color with a moderate beige head. Looks pretty plain. Aroma is fairly simple to be honest: some caramel, toasty-pine hops, earth...Tastes equally predictable, but pleasing nonetheless with flavors of caramel, toast, wood, dirt, and a somewhat supressed earthy hop flavor. Finishes mildly bitter and earthy. Medium bodied, not as creamy texturally as Rogue’s other offerings. It seems like this beer should be special but it’s just another Arrogant Bastard wannabe really. sunevdj (1784), Copenhagen OE, Denmark
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Jan 7, 2009 Fancy bottle with the Club. Pours a clear light brown. Smells of caramel and alcohol. Sweet with aromas of cream soda, rye and tiny hints of metals. Some residual sugars. Too sweet.
