The Dissident (2019)

Opened a bottle i've been saving a few months over the weekend from the always dependable Deschutes, the 2019 brewing of The Dissident.  The 10.5% ABV take on the classic Oud Bruin was brewed with cherries and aged in oak and pours a coppery color with a white and quickly dissipating head.  Aromas of cherry and oak are evident along with a hint of funk, and the flavor is an acidic mix of said cherries, oak, and funk with some nice tartness to round things out.  It makes for a wonderful pre or post dinner libation.

Visit the brewer.
