Yesterday's Beer

• Rogue Dead Guy-Dead Guy is a German-style Maibock made with Rogue's proprietary "PacMan" ale yeast. It is deep honey in color with a malty aroma, rich hearty flavor and a well balanced finish. Dead Guy is created from Northwest Harrington, Klages, Maier Munich and Carastan malts, along with Perle and Saaz Hops.

• Spaten Optimator-The dark lager has hints of chocolate and lots of malts in the aroma. It is very full bodied and can be considered liquid bread. It is strong and full of malt flavors with some sweetness as expected. Nice dopple bock.

• Avery Ellie's Brown Ale-This deep brown ale has a nice malt and caramel nose. It pours with a nice tan head. It is medium to full body with a sweet flavor, countered by the hops. Good beer with balance.

• Wychwood Hobgoblin-Brewed with pale malts and a pinch of chocolate malt and is a superb tawny red color. A delightful aroma and chocolate character. Full and rounded malt up front with a fruit and hops kick at the end. 5.5 % abv.
