Draught at Archer Ale House. POured a deep mahogany color, completely clear, and topped with a thin off-white head. Aromas of piney hops, caramalized sugar and malts, and dates. Tastes of dates, pine tree flavored hops and a slightly cloying sweet malt taste and mouth feel.

On tap at Papago: Pours to a clear light amber body with a small, bubbly eggshell colored head. The aroma gives off caramel malt, mild apples, slight hint of pear, and a light fruity grapefruit hops. Taste is initally sweet light caramel, which is quickly taken over by grassy, bitter, grapefruit bright & fresh hops, which lead to a very slight alcohol flavor, but only if held in the mouth for longer than normal. Finishes with some sticky sweet residual sugar, caramel, and a lingering grassy grapefruit hops bitterness on the sides of the tongue. Medium bodied, medium carbonation, hard to believe this is only 50 IBU’s, according to the description - my taste buds put it closer to 80.

Nice amber with a thick off white head. Aroma is malty, caramel, light alcohol, light hoppiness. Taste nice hoppiness matching with the maltiness and warming of the alcohol, caramel.

<i>Draught at Brickskeller, Washington DC, as Glen 15th Anniversary Ale 2008</i><br />Cloudy brown color, creamy head. It has a very nice caramel and hop aroma. Powerful body, smooth mouthfeel; it has a dominating caramel flavor, with enough residual sugars) and an excellent American hopping; the malt is a bit harsh, flour-ish, almost with traces of wheat. Powerful final too, with a lot of hop resins, just thrown in. Big.

Draught @ Cole’s. Hazy orange, not a lot of head or lacing. Hoppy nose. Brassy almost bock-like, lots of malt and hops and bread. The most muddled (almost dirty) Rogue I’ve had (a rogue Rogue?) and therefore strange and surprising.
