nor02lei Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 I did have a Rogue Dead guy Whiskeyat Stockholm beer and whisky festival yesterday witch due to the label was aged only 1 month. Not that bad at all I most say, a bit sticky nose but very sweet and mellow taste.Leif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
threejean Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 I just acquired a bottle yesterday, and I thought it was pretty good. Very smooth, a bit sweet. Could have used some more barrel aging. If they lowered the price some ( I paid $40) I think it would well worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like to try some but I haven't heard enough about the juice to justify dropping $40 on a bottle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultra Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Well, if I want to drink Tequila it is an option. If I want Whiskey, I'll pass on the Dead Guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bankerjoe Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 I have a bottle at home. I bought it on a whim. Kind of wish I didn't, though. It is okay, but there is something rather unpleasant about it. I can't really figure it out. Maybe it is a lack of oak as mentioned previously.

It is aged about as long as a Reposado Tequila. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is aged about as long as a Reposado Tequila.I really like Tequila though, especially blancos. There is some sort of floral or fruity type note that is just too excessive, but I think that is only because there really isn't anything else to the whiskey. Does anyone know what is actually distilled? (As in, is it just the grain, or is it the whole recipe, hops and all?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnHansell Posted September 10, 2010 Share Posted September 10, 2010 I reviewed it shortly after it first came out. Not a fan. Gave it a 69. Maybe it has improved since? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imbibehour Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 I reviewed it shortly after it first came out. Not a fan. Gave it a 69. Maybe it has improved since?I enjoyed it but found it very buttery sweet when I tried it at the Rouge Ale House in Portland OR. Very different, but I agree it's pricey.
