Flying Dog Snake Dog IPA

Have you ever seen a beer that you know will just haunt your dreams? Such is the case with our 4th entry to the International #IPADay 6-Pack, Flying Dog Snake Dog IPA. Before you even contemplate opening the bottle, one can't help but notice the labeling.

Featuring a very creepy snake and dog hybrid that looks more like an I don't know what with a dragon head growing out of it's back, it truly is one of the most memorable labels I've ever seen. At the same time, the bottle description aptly describes the beer as a crazy, stalking, ex girlfriend -- full of bitterness, bite, and attitude that slaps you in the face.

Not only amusing, this bottle description is also spot on in it's description of this IPA. Like a snake, it will lie around in the bushes until it attacks your taste buds with a truly bitter bite, but at the same time, like man's best friend, it is extra crisp and refreshing and will leave you asking for more.

Snake Dog also leaves a very strong aftertaste in a good way. While the common conception of aftertaste isn't a good thing, this Maryland native provides more of a lasting impression or a reminder of the delicious beer you just finished.

Flying Dog Snake Dog IPA gets 8.5 mugs out of 10.
