Just before the holiday, Deschutes Brewery sent me bottles of the latest Reserve Series beers for 2018: The Abyss and The Dissident. Both proven excellent beers, and always ones I appreciate receiving. I actually haven’t tried either of these yet this season (ironically, I was at Deschutes’ Bend Pub last week, but there was only The Abyss 2014 on tap), so I will make a note here when I do.
