Hi, I had some of this recently and want to brew some. anyone have a recipe? Also, have some pacman yeast on order. would it be suited for this beer?



Thanks, John


They use a very specila orange sugar to get the flavor. We've gotten it directly from the brewery, but I don't know where it's generally available.

I'm local to Rogue and know a few of the brewers. In addition, Rogue has brewed one of my recipes (a rye IPA they called "Two Tier Bier"), so I'm fairly familiar with their stuff. A friend of mine loves the HOW and got info (and the sugar) from them to make some. If you want to try to get the info from him, go to

PS i was perusing the rogue site and i think i may have to speed up my plans to visit rogue. i must try some of the beers i cant get here in NM.

I like Rogue Dead Guy. Anybody have a recipe for something similar?

Also, a visit to Rogue in Newport, OR is a good use of your time... Umm, Umm, Tasting Room!
