Feinschmecker (176), Seattle, Washington, USA Oct 24, 2009 Dark amber color. Intense scent of citrus hops. Flavor is on the sweeter side with hints of caramel, but balances well with the powerful hops. Full on the palate and the finishes is a tad bitter. calfaro (18), Trujillo Alto, Puerto Rico Oct 22, 2009 Reddish color, decent head formation, great lacing. Very flowery aroma. Caramel like initial taste and a hoppy/bitter finish. Normally I prefer a smoother finish but this was great and well worth the price tag. bonk0076 (24), Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA Oct 22, 2009 Reddish amber color. Nice one inch head. Aroma of caramel and pine. Starts slightly sweet and malty, but finishes strong with the hops. travita (1858), Frisco, Texas, USA Oct 21, 2009 The look is clear, has a big foamy off white head, and amber in color. Nice lacing with the head. The smell is hops, pine, caramel, and fruits. The taste is caramel, low bitterness, pine, and citrus. shawnm213 (884), South Bend, Indiana, USA Oct 20, 2009 tap at tremont taphouse. Pours amber with a small white head. Notes of doughy malts, bread, hay, caramel, and earth. Slightly sweet. Seemed a bit stale. Smooth. Ok tennessejed420 (69), Atlanta, Georgia, USA Oct 19, 2009 750 ml bottle. Rich malty aroma, sweet caramel, earthy malt, bubblegum. Smells great. Pours a true-mahogany-amber with nice off white head. Taste is of sweet caramel, wet leaves, rich, rich malt. The hops come through for a bitter finish. Very nice, but overpriced compared to other beers of comparable quality. dsid1127 (6), Illinois, USA does not count Oct 18, 2009 A little sweeter than I expected, yet still bitter enough that you feel it for a few minutes after you drink. Appearance and aroma of caramel. I drank the 750 ml. bottle and i feel it. I guess thats the "double" part of it. Truthfully i like this more than regular Dead Guy Ale. Good stuff savnac (394), Palmer, Alaska, USA Oct 18, 2009 On tap. Pours amber with an off white head. Aroma of overly sweet caramel, light fruit and pine. Flavor is sugary sweet with lots of hop bitterness. Thick syrupy mouth feel with average carbonation and a long sweet finish. How many times did I use the word sweet in this rating, too much, not a big fan of this one.
