Look: 8
Clear amber color, big frothy head, sticky lacing

9

Goes down like an IPA, but has the “Belgium Funk” going on. It’s like drinking two of my favorite styles in the same glass! I can definitely drink more than one of these bitches!

Overall Score: 8.6

10
Cost/12 oz serving: $1.60

Overall Impression:
Mikey likey! This is one of Flying Dogs better offerings! (It’s their 20th anniversary beer). I’ve had this beer with Asian food, and it paired nicely. It was a hard beer to find, so you should try to seek this one out if you like the style. I can’t believe they finally named a beer after my ex wife!......DOOOOH!
