Raison D'Extra (2014)

Belgian Strong Dark Ale

Our popular Raison D'Etre, with a little extra. This immodest brew, made with an obscene amount of malt, brown sugar and raisins, takes Belgian-style browns to new heights. See more at: http://www.dogfish.com/brews-spirits/the-brews/on-hiatus-brews/raison-dextra.htm

Another Brews Bros lost in the basement for 10 years. I was a little concerned with this one, but it’s pretty good.

This is drinkable but not sure it’s worth it at this abv. Plus I think I’ll hate it the more I drink this. It’s turned into this port-like drink and it’s almost too sweet

Cellar find by Nocturnem. Perfect to celebrate a Northern Hawk-Owl twitch! Cognac-level booziness and drunk off their ass raisins. But still smooth and a challenge at 5:30pm….thank goodness for that pretzel.

Stashed in the cellar here for 10 years. This is really delicious. Wicked boozy, but it has a smooth digestif thing going on which mellows it. I don’t feel like I should be drinking this before 6:00. But, did I mention Northern Hawk Owl?

Raison D'Extra. One of my favorite beers. This may just be entering it's crest, but it's honestly hard to tell because it was still so good. Really intense raisin, prune, brown sugar with an alcohol whack. Heavy body with rich mouthfeel. Excellent.

From last night. So good. Shockingly smooth for the huge ABV. Tons of dark fruit and brown sugar.

A bit delicious, not really getting the “raisins” or “brown sugar” that others state… I guess I’m nose dead 🤣
