Deschutes Brewery Announces The Abyss and 3 Variations of The Dissident
Deschutes Brewery has announced two of its most anticipated annual releases; The Abyss returns on November 10th with release parties in Bend and Portland, and The Dissident now comes in three variations. The Abyss is the acclaimed barrel-aged imperial stout and The Dissident is the brewery's take on a sour Flanders red with cherries that this year comes in an all wild yeast (100% Brett) version and a marionberry alternate, in addition to the classic blend. Both barrel-aged beers from Deschutes reserve series make their return just in time for the holidays with local release parties and very limited distribution.
