Postmortem Brew Review
Cinnamon orange in color.
Malt taste and aroma with floral scent of hops.
Minimal off-white head with good lacing.
Hoppy punch with each sip.
Medium bodied mouth feel with full hops taste.

Grim Reaper's Eulogy
What an ale. Great spicy sweet hops punch at 53 IBU's. It speaks to you that there's hops but doesn't scream at you. And after all, we're just looking for some peace and quiet around the crypt. Good one to kick back with after a hard day in the trenches. Dig those ditches. Love the hops...Mother earth. Good Mother earth. It feels like an honest days work went into this ale so the proletariat and petit-bourgeois could enjoy it. The capitalist pigs can drink the river water! Ha!

This is a fine amber ale worthy of its working class roots. Just look at the union guy on the label; sleeves rolled up with a solidarity fist pump in the air. You can check out their website and declare your own personal independence in the Rouge-dom.
Karl Marx eat you heart out!

Now then, back to Rogue.....I hear they have some "Dead Guy Ale". Gonna' have to get my hands on that! Muahaahaaahaaahaaaaa!
