Dogfish Head Bitches Brew
From Dogfish Head – In honor of the 40th anniversary of the original release of Bitches Brew, Miles Davis’ 1970 paradigm-shifting landmark fusion breakthrough, we’ve created our own Bitches Brew – a bold, dark beer that’s a fusion of three threads imperial stout and one thread honey beer with gesho root, a gustatory analog to Miles’ masterpiece.
Dogfish Head – Dogfish Head Bitches Brew – 750 ml bottle poured into a goblet. 9% abv. Purchased at Certified Market Monrovia, CA
Appearance: Pours a dark brown with a tan ring of suds.
Brewing something people should know about?
Since 2007, The Full Pint has been where craft beer fans get their news. Breweries and beer brands can reach them too.
Aroma: Roast, hospital disinfectant and maple sugar.
Taste: Dark chocolate, burnt roast that finishes the beer bittersweet.
Mouthfeel: Silky with modest carbonation.
Overall: A very dry Imperial Stout. It wasn’t my favorite, and I tried it on two separate occasions. I’m not complaining that it’s not a goopy mess, it just wasn’t my bag.

Trash beer that needs to rely on gimmicky names and labels to sell beer! Here’s a thought, make good beer with a shred of self respect and you won’t need gimmics and stupid names to sell it!
