COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Double Dog Double Pale Ale Back by popular demand, our original "Wild Dog Release" is back, and this time it’s for good. Double Dog Double Pale Ale is a generously hopped ale with a deep red color and pours with a nice frothy head. The abundance of hops will conjure some provocative aromas with hints of raisins and citrus.

UPDATED: APR 11, 2013 dark amber, clear, small white head; fruity aroma mostly citrus, some caramel; heavy bitterness, very heavy, little sweet, quite noticable alcohol but in this case it’s not a flaw; rather full body, thick, alcoholic feel, little metallic, average carbonation, long bitter finish; Overall: great strong beer, very bitter with noticeable alcohol and pleasant aroma, quite high drinkability considering percentage

Swaroga (788) - Brussels, BELGIUM - APR 9, 2013
33cl bottle. Clear brown with small, dirty white head. Nose : strong tart and booze, citrus fruits. Spices and esters. Sip : quite thick body, low carbonation and oily texture. Sweet tart with warming booze start, develops dry flavours of spices and herbs, finishing on bitter hops mixed with long lasting spicy notes. The beer develops flavours reminding me a cough medicine. Each sip this impression is getting stronger. Strange one.

Pith (89) - New York, USA - APR 1, 2013
Pours light clear amber with one finger foam cream head. Aroma sweet grass hops (cascade hops). Bitter start seeetish grass middle. Bitter end. I love Flying Dog, but I found this beer boring. Anyone who wanted to make a high hops beer could do similar.

Dorqui (1768) - Brescia, ITALY - APR 1, 2013
Bottled 0,33L - . Elegant reddish amber color, much fraught and charged aspect with a medium bubbly presence. Very creamy and foamy head of long long resistance. Malty and alcholic nose, pleasant rumors of cask, cellar, clear mildew, aged yeast. Charged and solid body, very perfumed and aged palate, notes of caramel, roast resin and cellar. Good sweetness with an arid tip on the end. Very good strong beer.

CanCrusher (309) - Ilirska Bistrica, SLOVENIA - MAR 31, 2013
Bottle 0,355L. Hazy amber-orange colour with small off-white head. Strong aroma of orange, elder, caramel, smoke, medicine and alcohol. After a while alcohol aroma starts to dominate and spoil the beer. Taste is heavy bitter with strong alcohol note. Full bodied, oily texture and soft carbonation.

SirRepsol (118) - Cologne, GERMANY - MAR 31, 2013
From bottle. The double dog pours a clear orange colour with a two-finger bright frothy head. Fruity and spicy but also alcoholic aroma of hops, mainly pine and citrus fruits and some maltiness. It can’t really hide its 11,5%...Taste is alcoholic, particularly in the aftertaste, as well as spicy and fruity. But the alcoholic taste just dominates everything, which impairs the generall (positive) impression. Medium body, fizzy carbonation and bitter finish. Interesting brew that is spoiled by its severe alcoholic taste.
