Dogfish Head's Raison D'Etre

I'm guessing this will be another over-hyped Dogfish beer, but I swear I'm keeping my mind open.

Pours a deep brown--same color but not as opaque as Palo Santo, with a nice tan head that stays. Smells kinda fizzy. Very slightly nutty, like a brown, but mostly just kind of... there.

Eh, not bad. I expected something much more off the wall. The 8% ABV is imperceptible, and there isn't a hint of the standard Belgian yeast flavors. It feels a little fizzy as well, but in general it's pretty good. Not hoppy or bready, just kind of light in feel despite the color and alcohol.
