Dog Bite High Gravity:
Okay, here we go. Today, April Fools, brings us a high gravity lager. This term is used specifically to denote a beer (mainly European beers) or malt liquor beer. The high gravity comes from the term the products used to make an alcohol content higher, mainly high quality grains in Euro beers and fillers in malt liquor which substitutes the higher quality grains with, I don’t know, wet dog or something. Euro high gravity beer is designed to fit in with high quality foods and malt liquor to be paired with junk food. America, baby, America.
So here we are, day 1 into malt drinking and I choose the malt with Cerberus on the front. Maybe this should have been a malt for later in the month (remember, my decisions are supposed to be increasingly bad, this sets a high bar). Dog Bite High Gravity Lager is the malt liquor of the brewer Magic Hat. The brew pours much like you’d think, a blonde lager that doesn’t present much of a nose or head. The beer tastes sweet on the front end and finishes like a cheap wine in the back end. Leaving a fruity film on the tongue and a back of the throat dryness. Carbonation remains throughout the drinking process, leaving individual columns of bubbles around the perimeter of the cup which is surprising since there have some beers this year that have little to no carbonation to speak of once they are poured. So, first malt liquor down, and how’d it go? Eh, not bad but not good either, the flavor isn’t something I’m used to so it’s hard to comment of it it’s good or bad. It’s bad by what I’m used to but as far as malt-liquors go, who knows?
