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.

Dark brown pour with a rather thin creamy head that fades fast. Faint but good aroma. Seems pretty thin for a porter but the taste is a good thin coffee flavor. Would maybe buy again sometime

Bottle. Pours an amber color with a small off white head that diminishes quickly. The aroma is a sweet malt with licorice and raisin. Decent lacing on the glass. The taste is a light malt with a sweet finish. Dont see this as a porter but still a decent brew from Flying Dog.

12 oz bottle. Dark brown with ruby highlights and a medium tan head-appearance just about perfect for a porter. Aroma: chocolate, light hints of roast, crystal and caramel malts. Taste is lightly roasty with more chocolate, some caramel sweetness- medium body. Finishes lightly bitter.

Bottle. Dark brown color - coffee and chocolate flavor - definitely malty doesn’t finish that great - extra points for having the word "shit" printed on the bottle
