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.

12 oz can from Beerbox. Aroma has notes of pickle, pickling spices, chili pepper. Pours hazy golden with an immediately collapsing bone-white head. Taste is highly sour (8/10) and moderately spicy (7/10) with flavors of spicy pickles. Also, quite salty. And delicious. Perfectly carbonated tiny bubbled mouthfeel.

12 oz. can. Pours black, with a big, dense, beige head. The aroma is chicory, burnt toast, orange peel, allspice, and chalk. Dry and malty, with an astringent bitterness. Medium body, dusty, and sticky. Pretty nice.

Can from Total Wine in Vacaville, CA. Pours translucent gold with a large white head that laced. Aroma of resin, citrus and melon. Med body. A bit juicy but dry. More than moderately bitter. Flavor to some extent matches the aroma. But there's a lot of flavor things I can't parse. A bit too fruity for old school? Pleasing tho.
