Rogue Ales - Dead Guy Ale

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 savory taste and a well-balanced finish. Dead Guy comes from Northwest Harrington, Klages, Maier Munich and Carastan Malts, along with Perle and Saaz Hops. In the early 1990s, Dead Guy Ale was created as a private rooster sticker to celebrate the Mayan Day of the Dead (November 1, All Souls Day) for Casa U Betcha in Portland, Oregon. The Dead Guy design proved popular and was incorporated into a bottle product with MaierBock as an elixir a few years later.
