Gustavs Finger

Story text:

A true Dugges classic. One of the first. Part of the Gothenburg Suite of beers celebrating the city we love. Brought back to celebrate 20 years of Dugges beers. Amazing.

We can’t remember when we first brewed Gustafs Finger, but it was a long time ago. It was also a long time since we stopped brewing it. And, we can’t remember why. An educated guess would be that the rise of the IPA made the Strong Bitter obsolete, at least here in Sweden. But now it’s back, with a bang. 

Medium to strong malt flavor with caramel, biscuit, and nutty notes balanced by moderate to high hop bitterness. Fruity esters are present. The finish is dry to slightly sweet. Hop flavor is earthy and herbal, with a subtle Dugges twist of a bright, floral-citrus bouquet from Cascade hops. There you have it. Celebration!
