beer_name: Double Dog Double Pale Ale
text: Drank from a Duvel tulip glass. Poured a Deep amber color-almost red. Sticky creamy head. Nice looking beer. What a surprise...I smell alot of hops! But also has some sweet carmel malty undertones. Smells a bit like honeysuckle. Nose is pretty intense. Tastes a bit too piney for me, could be confused with an IPA pretty easily. A fairly big beer with both alot of hops and malts but it feels like it is a bit unbalanced, alcohol is fairly prominent as well. For this style, I think I would rather have a Gordon's DPA from Oskar Blues, but how can you not commend Flying Dog for their efforts? I know this sounds wierd, but try this brew with a pickle...I thought it was good.
