Description
At DESTIHL, we brew more styles of beer because we have a passion for brewing & because you have a passion for unique, craft beers. Cheers!
DESTIHL was founded on the promise of supporting flavor and boycotting bland. We're an independent, production brewery that was established in 2013 in Bloomington-Normal, Illinois to brew beyond the confines of typical beers. Our team combines centuries-old global brewing traditions and new American craft brewing ingenuity & artisanship to produce a wide array of beers for every palate. We brew more styles of beer because we have a passion for brewing and because you have a passion for unique, craft beers. The result is a diverse offering of intensely flavorful beers that are anything but bland, from our award-winning WiLD SOUR Series, barrel-aged Saint Dekkera® Reserve Sour Ales and Dosvidanya® Russian Imperial Stout, to our many Belgian-style beers, IPA's, other wood-aged beers, classic styles and exciting seasonals. DESTIHL has become a brand, but we have not strayed from our roots. We take pride in our values and will continue to grow and support our local community. We promise to deliver on these uncompromising beliefs. Every beer we brew is unique. So, whether you share it or hoard it, we hope you enjoy it. After all, you deserve it.

Bottle @ pussy palace. Pours a hazy peachy orange appearance with a little head. Barnyard funk, blueberry, vanilla, lightly woody, slight cheesy aroma. Pretty heavy acetic acid, berry, vinegar, fairly sour flavor. Alright.

Bottle @ the peteing zoo. Pours a pretty clear ruby orange appearance with an off white head. Really bright raspberry seedy, vanilla, cranberry juice nose. A bit doughy, red juicy, sought woody flavor. A little cheesy. Carbonation is a bit dull. Kind of a fun beer.
