12oz draft at Old Chicago's

A: Golden amber body; quite clear on the pour; creamy off-white head about a finger and a half thick on the pour; sheet-like lacing

S: Kind of buttery and bready on the nose; lots of malts as I expected; some caramel notes are there but are nicely balances by some dried, toasted grain/cracker notes and fresh baked wheat bread

T: Huge maltiness through and through; buttery and nutty; some touches of caramel sweetness and some sweet cake like qualities; finish is slightly drying and brings out a touch of floral hop-like flavors before fading into butter toast flavors on the finish

M: Somewhat creamy texture on the palate; goes down quite smooth

D: Really easy drinking; no problem finishing off a 12 oz bottle; perhaps a good session beer

22oz bomber into pint glass

A - a slightly cloudy dark orange/almost brown beer. only about an inch of head, which dissipates quickly. decent amount of lacing

S - bready/grainy malts, slight hops, and some yeast characteristics as well. not a lot going on in the smell

T - malt forward but a nice kick from the hops (citrus i think), which wasnt there in the smell. dried fruits permeate throughout, finishes very smooth

M - Medium bodied which is surprising given the booze content. well carbonated

Overall - A very nice offering from Rogue, not surprising this is their pride and joy and most heavily distributed. smooth drinking, good flavors. only complaint is from the nose, which is a minor complaint
