look: 4.5 | smell: 4 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 5

A - Pours a deep honey color with a cotton hue head.

S - Smells of malt and freshly baked bread.

T - Big malt flavor balanced by a delicate hop profile. Very well balanced. Fresh bread crust is in there in a good way. It's quite like a bigger, maltier, munich!

M - Smooth, full and balanced as can be! Quite quaffable.

D - Damn. This may just have been the beer that I've been waiting for all my life. It's just made it into my top 10. With time and thought, it just might make top 5!

This beer is a real go to for me. Always delicious. The malts and hops are mixed just about as perfectly as can be on the palate. Color is a darkish brown that just makes my mouth water looking at it. While the smell may be lacking a little, the taste is a real mouthful

Rogue Ales - Dead Guy Ale - 1pt 6fl oz "bomber"

Look - Pours an almost clear deep copper amber with an inch thick soapy head that sticks around. Lacing present but slides. Minimal carbonation.

Smell - Malty bready caramel with a slight hop on top. Little bit of bite.

Taste - Malt, bread, rich and hearty fruit, with an ever so slight hop touch mixed with caramel for the finish. The taste more than makes up for the lack of breathtaking aroma.

Mouthfeel - Hearty and full, smooth throughout. Good drinkability. No booziness at all. Yeast and malt coat the palate.

Overall - This is a great representation of this style and beer in general. Once in a while you can live without the hop zing element and get back to basics, this hearty ale proves that.
