Beer 348 - Dogfish Head Red & White (4.5 stars out of 5)
Brewed and bottled by Dogfish Head Inc, Milton, DE. Bought at Specs on Old Katy Road and drunk at home while preparing and eating dinner (steamed cauliflower and carrots, fresh tomato and cucumber from the garden and nutrisystems hearty beef stew and chili with beans) hmm.

The web site says: "A big, Belgian-style Wit brewed with coriander and orange peel and fermented with Pinot Noir juice. After fermentation a fraction of the batch is aged in one of our giant oak tanks.
This has been one of our most popular Limited Edition beers at both our Rehoboth Beach, DE brewpub and at festivals. It successfully marries the refreshing citrusy qualities of a Belgian-style white beer with the robust complexity of a bold red wine. ABV 10.0%"
The bottle says " Ale Brewed with coriander and orange peel with pinot noir juice added with 11% aged in pinot noir barrels and 89% aged on oak barrel staves"
This was delightful and delicious. I enjoyed the taste a lot. Went very nicely with dinner.
