Rogue Dead Guy Ale: 20

Taste: 6 Finish: 8 Visual: 3 Aroma: 3
Total: 20

Rogue Dead Guy Ale is a craft beer from Oregon. It is brewed as a German-Style Maibock. Dead Guy Ale has a nice amber color but it’s cloudy which was unexpected. The head was small and thin and dissipated quickly. A very subtle aroma of malt. It starts with a sweetness like a touch of honey mixed with the malt. Next is a medium hoppiness. Finally it has a nice hop and sweet aftertaste that dissipates quickly finishing cleanly. For a beer that claims it is “microcrafted” I would say it’s a good effort but not great. A nice beer that’s a bit too expensive for the quality you get.
