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.

Not bad, sexy as hell pour with a big roasted chocolate nose. Notes of unsweetened chocolate, espresso, pine, and a firm roasted bitterness on the back end. Bitterness seems a bit outsized for a non-imperial stout, but still a pretty good pint.

Dark brown with a rocky head. Pumpkin dominates the aroma with some light roasted notes. Flavour is roasted malt, pumpkin and bubble gum.

Poured a vibrant yellow color with a fluffy white head. Can pour. I really like their spicy pickle beer, but hadn't had this one yet. While it does nail the mark with it being like pickle juice. Okay, but needs either some more brine and sharp tartness to it.

Bottle shared with Johnny. Opaque black color, small brown colored head. Aroma is malts, dark malts, cognac clearly. Flavor is malts, again firm cognac again, light chocolate, cherries, cherry stone bitter. Malt bitterness. Very solid, perhaps a little too much cherry and cherry stone in the finish, but still quite nice.
