Beer #4: Dogzilla Black IPA -- Laughing Dog Brewing



So sayeth the Beer Club Crew of Laughing Dog Brewing's Dogzilla Black IPA:

"This aroma is crrrrazy."

"[This aroma is] So interesting."

"Doing a lot [olfactoraly]!"

Amelia made a face like a dog licking peanut butter: "I thought it was done making tastes, but oh I was wrong."

[Discussion about how neither Idaho nor Pittsburgh nor Buffalo is in the midwest. Someone posits Buffalo is "mid-Atlantic" (ed. note: untrue)]

"I'm not from Kansas anymore, Toto." - Katy

"Tastes like it's been aged in my grandmother's trunk." - Christa

[Discussion about how color affects expectations of taste.]

"Tastes musty."

"There's a nutty flavor, with a little chocolate."

"Complex, and it really makes you think."

"Long and bitter finish."

Ben reads from the bottle: pure poetry. How many times can you rhyme with the word "down?" Too many, according to Laughing Dog's copy-editor.

Suggestion: "Everyone should create a haiku about each beer." (Groans)

Final Score: 0 (7 voters)
