Dec 6, 2008 POurs hazy amber into a trappist glass. Head quickly recedes to hug rim. Raisin and pit fruit aromas. Full and slightly syrupy. Lasting pine hop finish.

Dec 5, 2008 wow. take my rating of Rogues Dead Guy ale, shove it into a large red bottle, and inflate the price like their is no economic crisis, and weve got Rogues Double Dead Guy Ale. Double the price, for essentially the same brew. Way to go guys....Its good, but no different than regular deadguy. Nuff said. Sorry for the lack of apostrophes, apparently ratebeer is in simple mode.

Dec 4, 2008 Pours dull copper with a tall chunky almond meat head great retention good lacing. Aroma has lots of caramel, cashew brittle, floral and citrus hops, citron candies. Flavor is praline, lemon and floral hops with a bit of roast, bitter hops, cocao liquor, licorice, and bitter spicy hops. Finish is somewhat bitter with hints of butterscotch, lots of caramel and sweet dried fruit. After a few drinks I noticed an interesting smoke-like taste from the middle to well into the finish, interesting and hard to place, like smoked berries or something. This probably hides its alcohol content better than just about any beer I have had recently.

Dec 4, 2008 On tap at Stone a few weeks ago. I was surprised I liked this as much as I did. Aroma of lemon, fruit and citrus. Color was an orange amber with a light beige head. Flavor was solid and drinkable. A pretty good balance. Caramel, fruit, lemon and citrus. Enjoyable for the style.

Dec 3, 2008 Testing. Dark amber, darker than expected. Medium head. Toffee and some fruitiness in the nose. Very sweet with lots of toffee and caramel. A touch of butterscotch. Faintly bitter at the finish. Drinkable but not something Id get excited about.

Dec 1, 2008 On tap. Poured a dark cloudy amber, with a thin head. Didn’t get too much from this, found it malty with some hop flavor, nothing that really stood out. Maybe this was from a bad keg?

Nov 30, 2008 (Bottle). Strong sweet hoppy aroma, fruits and caramel. Clear reddish amber body, medium light tan head. Delicious flavor profile, well blended with fruity hops and mild sweet caramel malt. Pleasing long lasting finish. This is a great ale, I just wish it weren’t so darned expensive.
