Commercial Description:
Founders flagship beer. Dirty Bastard is an absolute beautiful beer to behold. Dark ruby in color and brewed with ten varieties of imported malts this beer continuously lives up to its reputation as a bold and powerful ale. Dirty Bastard is complex in the finish with hints of smoke and peat paired with a malty richness, finalized with a good bit of hop attitude. This beer “ain’t fer the wee lads”

At Three Cellars tasting Founder’s Brewery night. Reddish brown with a thin head. Sweet malty aroma. Sweet malty taste to go with dry hop finish. A little on the sweet side but still pretty good.

Pours a dark amber with a small dark tan head. Aroma of caramel, smoke, and some brown sugar. Starts out with a nice sweetness, but there is a lingering bitterness that I don’t care for.

Poured a dark auburn color with a very small head that disappeared quickly. Mild aroma. Sweet carmel taste, but sweetness did not linger. Very smooth, belying strength.
