Rogue Youngers Special Bitter

Had it on cask at Fat Head’s in Pittsburgh. Very pleasurable and easy drinking bitter. A bit hoppy but not unpleasantly so.

Bottled. Good sized, off white head with and orange hue and numerous speckles and sheets of lacing, fully lasting head. Liquid is clear, amber with a little red added. The nose revealed is sweetly malty, with mostly caramel, some sugar, some dough like yeast, soil and musk, some fruit like peach. Lively, lasting carbonation, medium body, watery finish, dry later. Sugary sweet front followed by peachish hops with no sweet of itself, but underlying front is still with and that is maintained throughout. Some grapefruit rind, light caramel. The palate near perfect Well designed beer that I keep coming back to.

hoppy aromas with a subdued matly cookie smell. hazy amber color with an off white head. sweet flavors of malt, caromel, bread and cookies. hop flavors emerge toward the finish. enough bitterness to balance the sweet malt. some american hop grapefruit flavors. a tastey beer. a little more complex than you run of the mill ESB, but not as complex as some british varieties. the american hops are prevalent and less subtle than british types.

Bottle Pours a fairly dark amber/copper with a slight head and decent lacing. Aroma is a dark malt with some hops but not overpowering . Flavor is malty and hoppy, but lacking the harsh bitterness. Smooth and nice and heavy. Missing that lingering bitterness, or most of it. A very drinkable "Bitter"

Amber color with a rather large white head. Light hop aroma with hints of malt and citrus. Mildly hoppy flavor with a nice malt balance. Kind of reserved for a Rogue. Very easy drinking.

Amber in color, very crisp & smooth body, very drinkable, huge bubbly & fluffy white head, great lacing around the glass, big malty nose with a prominent aroma of fruit, great hoppy flavors with more fruity notes, creamy body, great session beer, smooth finish with malty notes, nice bitter

Clear amber brown, with fine thick head. Some floral hops, with malt aromas. Hoppy start and finsh with crisp fruit, becoming almost creamyas it warms. Very refreshing. Great session beer...Don’t you just love Rogue?!!

amber body light large frothy head head, looks very appetising. full smelling very very smooth. a little bitter in the 1st taste and the after taste. yet not to over powering
