Commercial Description:
Brewed in the tradition of centuries old Scottish brewing methods, "Road" is reminiscent of a Porter. Road Dog is a rich, malty beer with hints of chocolate and licorice resulting from the use of four prized malts.

A very nice porter here folks. not to harsh on the pallate, not too strong, a mellow finish on the tongue, and its quite smooth going down. just how i like my porters.

Smell is of caramel and sweet malts. Pours brown (barely able to see through) with a large cream head. Taste is sweet that lasts throughout, caramel with licorice. Full bodied for a porter with high carbonation. This is an alright porter but doesn’t impress.

Pours a dark brown with a hint of red and a thin off-white head. Tastes of roasted malts, chocolate, some coffee, and caramel. Very light body for a porter and rather thin taste as well. Not a great porter.

Bottle. Roasted barley malt and hops in aroma.. Clear deep dark redbrown colour with beige head. Bitter flavour with an aftertaste of grapefruit and chocolate. Low carbonation.

355ml Bottle - Dark brown, with some red tinges. Malty aroma with hints of cola, caramel and some slightly fruity hints. Malty and fruity taste with raisins and some hints of roasted coffee. Slightly thin and lacking body. A bit of a disappointment.

Not bad, especially from a mix pack. When you get 12 beers for $16 bucks, you don’t expect to be blown away. A drinkable, lighter porter with decent colour, aroma, and flavour.
