3.85/5 rDev +6.6%
look: 3.5 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 4
A Brewer's Reserve, I like that they didn't follow the temptation of most American brewers and pile in the hops instead of working up a good malt backbone.
Since this brewery mostly cans, I won't write about what it looks like or smells like through a small hole. But it has a nice blend of roasted malts and, as I said, restrained use of hops.
It is a pleasant stout and one I will seek out again.
