Russian River Brewing Co. – Damnation

Damnation is a Belgian-style Golden Strong Ale, inspired by the great Trappist ales of Belgium. Crafted with a blend of European malts, classic Belgian yeast, and spicy hops, it balances strength with delicate complexity. Its effervescent body and dry finish make it a refined and deceptively easy-drinking brew.

Tasting Notes:

• Mouthfeel: Effervescent and smooth with a medium-light body and lively carbonation.

• Finish: Crisp and dry with a lingering peppery, floral hop character.

• ABV: 7.5%

• Style: Belgian-style Golden Strong Ale
