    I still haven’t opened one...your comment makes me less likely to do so...

    CT Valley is such a sleeper brewery. Most everything I’ve had from them has been A+

    You went to Richmond and you had a Steel Reserve?

    Nice! (Please ignore the GF’s mumbling of “Why?” repeatedly)

    :wink:

    [​IMG] Poured into a 16 oz Hop Slam glass, not sure when it was canned. Pours a very hazy yellow with a solid finger plus sticky white head that leaves thick rings of lace as it slowly settles yielding amazing retention. 4.25

    Smell is papaya, pineapple, mandarin orange, and white grapefruit. 4

    Taste follows papaya, mandarin orange, pineapple, and some mild grapefruit bitterness. 4

    Mouthfeel is a solid medium, a touch sticky but not dry, gentle carbonation, and drinks closer to 8% rather than 7%, but really crushable. 4.25

    Overall never had anything from this place, but this one is really tasty. 4

    Throwback, nice! A month off isn’t all that bad for seasonal creep these days, though.

    Probably the same reason @JamFuel went to Cheesecake Factory here. ‘Murica.

    It is! Sold out of cans quickly before we stumbled over here. Outstanding.

    Settling in here ba. Perhaps not what it once was, in terms of quality and hype, but this is still a pretty good drinking,

    Glad to hear it's great! Was contemplating making the trek down, but decided not to. Enjoy!

    Lol,ugh.

    Richmond has so fine breweries, and I believe I might just park my ass at Mekong, and call it a day and that is the most vile crap ever brewed, and I’m being kind. IMO of course, but it made me chuckle a bit, hope it was a great trip. This was a non judgmental sentence lol.

    I loved Richmond, great city, great people, great beer. The Steel Reserve was only to try a malt liquor...
