Our Dosvidanya Day Release Party returns on Saturday, February 21st! Dosvidanya, our award-winning Barrel-Aged Imperial Stout, has earned top honors at the Great American Beer Festival, the Festival of Wood and Barrel-Aged Beer, and recognition as a Best Beer in Illinois.

All 2026 Dosvidanya variants are available exclusively at this event and will not be distributed. Any remaining bottles will be sold later at both DESTIHL locations.

Attendees will explore our production space, sample four pre-selected variants at tasting stations, hang out in the Winner’s Lounge featuring other award-winning DESTIHL beers, purchase additional variants and vintage bottles, and enjoy live music in the Barrel Room. Ticket options include VIP, General Admission, and GA plus guest packages.
