Dogfish Head Raison D’Etre

Dogfish Head Raison D'Etre ABV: 8.0 IBU: 25 Availability: Limited, Draft Only Original Release Date: 03/1998 A deep mahogany, Belgian-style brown ale brewed with beet sugar, raisins and Belgian-style yeast. We began brewing this one at our pub in 1996 (we began packaging and selling it sometime in 1998) as the answer to the question, What beer should I enjoy with a wood-grilled steak? Raison D'Etre fits the bill. It's as tasty and complex as a fine red wine.
