Not all things are as they appear! With the humble beginnings of a Pale Ale, this beer became a “Biere de Garde”, and at one point one would have said it was a Brown Ale. We now call it a “Biere de Sonoma”. This brew is a delightful combination of the aforementioned styles. Sometimes a brew will not find its personality until many batches have been brewed, and this is the story of Perdition. A complex bouquet with mouth filling notes of spice, toasted malt, and citrus make this unique and tasty brew one to enjoy with flavorful dishes.

30th August 2008. ’Pale Ale, Biere Du Garde and Brown Ale hybrid’. In actuality a slightly haxy brown beer with a very delicate touch of sourness and a dry finish. Different but not outstanding.
