I gotta say, this was a very pretty beer. Poured nicely with a thin tan head and a cloudy amber body.
Overall this was a nice beer. Cost about $12.00 at the local liquor store, which seems pricey, but considering I’ve spent $8 on a twelve ounce Bud at a baseball game, I think it’s worth the price.

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Sep 29, 2009 Restrained hops may slightly reign in the huge malt flavors--roasted caramel malt, prune, ripe orange notes, roasted milk chocolate. Comments: Very very big with complex aromas and malt flavors that evolve in the glass. A few sips can go a long way, and gave me a very pleasant, mellow buzz to end my session. This just can’t be compared to a standard beer; better to think of a young, ageable port. The complexity and changing flavors reminded me of the one (and probably only) time that I got to try Sam Adam’s Utopia. It helps to sip and enjoy this slowly over 30 to 60 minutes and all will be right with the world. zach8270 (2102), Henrietta, New York, USA

Aroma is malty and fruity with a little bit of bitter hops underneath. Flavor is rather spicy at the beginning with a creamy and malty middle and a spicy and bitter finish. ericandersnavy (1063), crossroads, Texas, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Sep 26, 2009 bottle from midway in denton tx. poured amberish with a nice white head that would not go away. aroma was strong malt upfront, slight orange, and followed by dark fruits like raisin and prune. flavor was much the same with a nice pine hop bitter added to it. body was heavy on the palate with light-medium carbonation. a good solid brew all around but not sure if it is worth the 15 bucks i paid for it.

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Sep 23, 2009 On tap at Rogue pub location. It’s dead guy on steroids, obviously. Pours a little redder, smells oakier and the taste of the alcohol nearly overwhelms. if that’s what you’re going for, well, DDG is great at it. Fratto (728), Arlington, Texas, USA
