4.9 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 10/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 20/20Quite possibly my favorite Ale! This has been one of my favorites since back in my college days (Florida State Univ grad. 2001). The pour from the bottle is a beautiful copper color with a cloudy/white head. The aroma is of hops, spice and has a medium body and the aftertaste finished strong. Just the right bitterness - every time I want a quality Ale Dead Guy is what I pick up.

Definitely a great brew from this brewery. I've only tried this one and the Yellow Snow IPA, but this one is better.

Nutty, malty with good and clean hop taste. It is subtle yet straightforward.

3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle. Aroma has orange and bready malts. Flavor has sweet orange, caramel and bready malts Smooth and creamy mouthfeel. Aftertaste is fruity, too sweet for my taste lowering the rating a bit but a nice session ale nevertheless.
2.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Dimpled mug. Sweet smell, hints of malts and barley. Pours a cloudy copper, quick dissipating head. Thick heavy mouth feel, finishes sweet. A really sweet tasting beer and not necessarily in a good way. Just average.
2.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
Really disappointing due to the rankings and fanfare. Unspectacular and standard save for increased sharpness and caramel & citrus moments.
4.1 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 15/20
Pours a cloudy golden brown with enormous head and good lacing. Aroma is tons of caramel malt and a little bit of piney hops. Aroma is complex and changing - very nice. Taste is similar, with rich malts and full flavor, with the right amount of fruity hops to cut in at the end. Palate is full bodied, smooth, and rich. Overall very well done. Might be an old bottle - label was peeling and it poured cloudy. Would love to re-rate to confirm this one.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Clear amber gold colour, slight off-white head. Aroma of hops, malt and honey. Quite herbal. Sweet malty flavour, bitter hops, rather fruity. Bitter finish, hops, light honey.
Feels a bit old, no best before date though.

3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Very smooth smell, malty with hints of cereal and toast. Pours vibrant clear orange with a thick white head. Good flavor, layered with a long finish. Medium bodied with good carbonation.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Thought this would be better from Rogue, but I guess every beer can’t be perfect. Drinking from a bottle, but has a bitter aftertaste that is not pleasing.
