Malt Does More is drinking an Outer Darkness by Squatters Craft Beers at City of Lindon
Aged 22 months at cellar temps in the parents’ pantry (here’s to hiding beers in plain sight!) and less unrelentingly bitter than it was a year ago. There’s still massive amounts of dark chocolate but also some umami and better balance overall.

Malt Does More: much better can, or the additional 16 months have done very good things to it.
