Deschutes Planète Rouge is named for it’s different ecosystems – what’s that? Planète Rouge, Deschutes’ new sour red ale is a blend of three different base beers, Sour ‘Lil Red, Flanders Red and The Dissident with two strains of wild yeast and two strains of bacteria were used then aged in pinot noir barrels, 14 to be exact.
The deep red ale is 10.2% ABV – oh heck yes it is – with flavors of cherry, peach, plum and oak, with dried fruit and maple syrup on the aroma. Planète Rouge is a fantastic addition to the Deschutes family!
