đïž DadDimes on the Rocks â Episode: âDead Guy Whiskey: Rogueâs Coastal Single Malt Experimentâ
Welcome back, whiskey adventurers! Today, we're exploring a distinctive regional expression from Oregonâs Rogue DistilleryâDead Guy Whiskey. Inspired by their popular Dead Guy Ale, this malt whiskey is a quirky twist on traditional spirits, aged with a Pacific coastal influence. Letâs pour in and see if that ocean breeze adds flavor or just air. Letâs welcome our special guest, Paul Murray.
đ The Rogue Coastal Concept
Dead Guy Whiskey is a 100% malted barley American single malt, distilled in Newport, Oregon, then aged at sea level near the Pacific, including exposure to Yaquina Bayâs salty sea air. It matures for at least two years in new American oak barrelsâno corn, no rye, no pretender, just malted barley.
đ„ Tasting Notes
Nose
Bright and malty, with fresh orange citrus, sweet honey-raisins, and a gentle seaâair salinity paired with vanilla and woody notes.
Palate
Clean and easy-going, leaning light but balanced: green tea, lemon, buttered brown sugar, touches of pepper and toasted cereal, plus a hint of dark chocolate and sea salt. Youâll also catch gentle barley spice and a slightly grassy depth.
Finish
Medium-length and grainy, with lingering malt sweetness, clean oak, oak tannins, and a whisper of coastal totiness. The finish balances oak structure and gentle herbal/spicy notes.
đŻ Who Should Try It?
- Curious drinkers who want a non-Kentucky malt whiskey with coastal character.
- Fans of DIPA-like malt textures or those who enjoy Rogueâs Dead Guy Ale.
- Folks who appreciate light, easy sippers, neat or in whiskey-forward spritzers.
â Caveats
- At 80 proof, it lacks punch and bourbonâs oak powerâsome find it thin and under-oaked.
- Its classification as âwhiskyâ irks Scotch sticklers, while others find the flavor tequila-adjacent or soapy.
- Priced around $45â50, some argue you'd get more bang for buck elsewhere.
â Final Verdict: 3/5
Dead Guy Whiskey is an intriguing, coastal-aged American single maltâsmooth, grainy, and mildly salty. Itâs not a barrel-buster, but it brings a cool regional vibe and easy approachability. If youâre looking for something unique and local to the West Coast, give it a tryâjust donât expect bourbon-level depth or heat.
Thatâs our pour on Dead Guy Whiskey! Whether this coastal dram sinks or floats in your lineup depends on taste, mood, and curiosity. Until next time, keep exploringâand remember, variety is the spice of sipping. Cheers! đ„
