Aroma: Moderate to strong malt aroma, often with a lightly toasted quality and low melanoidins.  Moderately low to no
noble hop aroma, often with a spicy quality.  Clean.  No diacetyl.  Fruity esters should be low to none. Some alcohol
may be noticeable.  May have a light DMS aroma from pils malt.
Appearance: Deep gold to light amber in color.  Lagering should provide good clarity.  Large, creamy, persistent,
white head.  
Flavor: The rich flavor of continental European pale malts dominates (pils malt flavor with some toasty notes and/or
melanoidins). Little to no caramelization.  May have a light DMS flavor from pils malt.  Moderate to no noble hop flavor.
 May have a low spicy or peppery quality from hops and/or alcohol.  Moderate hop bitterness (more so in the balance
than in other bocks).  Clean, with no fruity esters or diacetyl.  Well-attenuated, not cloying, with a moderately dry finish
that may taste of both malt and hops.
Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied.  Moderate to moderately high carbonation.  Smooth and clean with no harshness or
astringency, despite the increased hop bitterness.  Some alcohol warming may be present.
Overall Impression: A relatively pale, strong, malty lager beer.  Designed to walk a fine line between blandness and
too much color.  Hop character is generally more apparent than in other bocks.

Rogue Dead Guy Ale is described as a German-style Maibock. It is deep honey in color with a
malty aroma, rich hearty flavor and a well balanced finish. A typical Rogue beer, Dead Guy Ale
is more bitter than the style would normally call for. This should be a thirst quencher that
packs a bit of a wallop! Alcohol will be around  8.6%.
