Perrin Announces No Rules Day 2021

From Perrin:

Bottles of No Rules Vietnamese Imperial Porter Are Available For One Day Only

Comstock Park, MI  (March 18, 2021) Perrin Brewing Company announces the annual release of No Rules Vietnamese Imperial Porter. No Rules Day is one of the Perrin team’s favorite days of the year and they are pleased to keep the tradition going, even if the celebration cannot be fully in person. Online ordering of the esteemed beer will take place for one day only, April 10, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.

No Rules Vietnamese Porter earned a bronze medal at GABF 2020. The rare, once-a-year release is brewed with coconut, cinnamon and turbinado sugar, then laid down and aged in bourbon barrels for several months. The result is a gigantic, 15% ABV brew that’s deceptively smooth and subtly sweet. Over the years, No Rules has earned a stack of accolades, including a RateBeer ranking in the World’s Top 10 Imperial Baltic Porters of 2016, and the World’s Top New Beer Release of 2015. In 2018, it was deemed one of the Top 5 CANarchy Beers to Drink by Forbes Magazine.

Connor Klopcic, Perrin’s Director of Brewing Operations, said, “Originally released in 2015 and selling out within an hour, this beer has evolved into Perrin’s most sought-after beer. It was originally brewed as a middle finger to the idea that beer should be true-to-style and always stick to the rules. There were No Rules at Perrin while making this beer, and No Rules has a complex flavor profile that is always changing as the beer ages or warms in your glass.”

Since its release in 2015, No Rules has earned a stack of accolades, including a RateBeer ranking in the World’s Top 10 Imperial Baltic Porters of 2016, and the World’s Top New Beer Release of 2015. No Rules holds a score of 100 on BeerAdvocate. Here’s what BeerAdvocate users had to say:
"SMOOOOOOOTH and sweet (with a capital S). Not overly boozy. Easy to pound and crush." – drdyel
"Overall, one of the best beers I’ve ever had. Definitely a bit sweet but not overdone. The sugar and bourbon alcohol mix perfectly with chocolate, spice, vanilla and cinnamon." – Wolvmar
"The barrel is prominent on the taste, but the oak and coconut mellow it a bit. The star of the show, though, is the turbinado sugar, which adds sweetness (duh) to the beer, but also depth and balance that really elevates this." – ovaltine
In addition to No Rules 2021, Perrin will offer other rare items online, including exclusive vintage variants of No Rules, as well as Malted Milk Ball, Perrin Reserve and Roeselare.
