Rogue Ales
Rogue Yellow Snow IPA
| User Rating: |
Our 3 day beer crawl in the Napa Valley of brewers was outstanding. 3 dedicated days to tasting brews and talking with brewmasters was a highlight of the year. One of those highlights was the Rogue Ales Public House near downtown Portland. So many beers to chose from and so little time! Upon my return from ... [Read more]
Chatoe Rogue First Growth Creek Ale
| User Rating: |
The last of four Chatoe GYO brews, John Maier adds a little twist by adding a sour ale to the mix. Using an additional Belgian yeast strain and introducing cherries in the brewing process the old Flemish style ales of old come to mind. When examining its appearance I found a cloudy blend of reds, ... [Read more]
Rogue XS Imperial Red Ale
| User Rating: |
Noel: The Rogue XS series beers aren’t exactly winning the hearts of craft beer lovers through generosity. These dinky 7 oz. bottles make even a regular 12 oz. longneck look like the Sears Tower. So clearly, what it lacks in size, it makes up for in flavor, right? Luckily, in this case, yes. An Imperial ... [Read more]
Rogue XS Imperial IPA
| User Rating: |
Rogue decided to switch up their Imperial series packaging from those large ceramic bottles to little 7 oz samples. From what I have heard it was partly due to product movement which is sad to hear. Now if want a full glass I have to buy 3-4 mini ones. Displaying a British soldier wearing a ... [Read more]
Rogue John John Hazelnut Ale
| User Rating: |
The 3rd release of these John John ales by Rogue is easy drinking, elegant, and loaded with delicious aromas and flavors. Combining the Hazelnut Brown Nectar with white oak barrels that once contained Hazelnut spiced Rum, this beer is an instant winner in my book. Similar to the first two John John (John John Dead ...

Rogue Chocolate Stout
| User Rating: |
So…beer is pretty good stuff. You probably wouldn’t be reading this if you didn’t think so yourself. And if you’re like most people, you probably like chocolate, too. Just throwin’ that out there. I apologize if you’re not one of those people; maybe you’re allergic (horrors!). Or maybe you’re just crazy and really don’t like ... [Read more]
Chatoe Rogue First Growth OREgasmic Ale
| User Rating: |
This is the second of apparently four GYO Rogue beers that I have been able to find in my neck of the woods. If you check their website (www.rogue.com) you’ll find they currently offer a Blonde Ale, Black Lager, and two Pales as a part of this series. Looking back at my review on the ... [Read more]
Rogue XS Imperial Younger’s Special Bitter
| User Rating: |
Noel: Paying $5 for seven ounces of beer definitely requires some consideration. But in my case, if the beer has “Rogue” plastered on the front of it, I’d probably pay $5 for one ounce. Speaking of which…who decided that “ounce” would be a good term for a measure of volume? What a strange word… Anyway, ... [Read more]
Rogue American Amber Ale
| User Rating: |
Pours a cloudy, rusty orange with minimal head on my pint glass pour. Aroma consists of more malt than hops, and I pick up a toasted, bready note. Before I go into the taste let me say that I appreciate the few Rogue beers I’ve had. I know my brother who resides on the West ... [Read more]
Rogue John John Juniper Pale Ale
| User Rating: |
Glancing over the “new arrivals” section of my local store my eye caught a few Rogue beers. It didn’t take long to pull the trigger, disregarding the beers I came for and making the purchase. One of the bottles that I happened to pick up was the second of a series of John John Ales. ... [Read more]
