Previous Inception brews include Toasted Barn, Microbe Rue, Sexy Betty, Ugly Betty and Romancing The Cone. Established in 2007, Nebraska Brewing also produces around nine year-round and seasonal beers, as well as its higher end Reserve Series.

The Perfect Crime is Stone Brewing Co.’s 15th collaborative expression, following the recent launch of Saison du Buff, created in partnership with Dogfish Head’s Sam Calagione and Victory Brewing’s Bill Covaleski.
