Didn’t expect a dead guy to be this strong.

OK, Beer Advocate says that Dead Guy is a Maibock, but Double Dead Guy is an American Strong Ale.  OK, sure, why not?

This was a rich, deep cooper colored ale with a rich foamy head.  I’ll definitely agree that it’s a strong ale – it clocks in at 9% ABV.  Had a sweet malty taste, with a bitter hop finish.  This was another beer that I might have just one of, then switch to something lighter.    That’s the reason I’m dropping this one down to a P(assable).
