Steel Reserve
Steel Reserve is a bold, high-gravity lager brewed for strength, smoothness, and character. Introduced in 1994 by the Steel Brewing Company (part of Molson Coors), it’s crafted using a longer brewing process and extra malted barley to create a full-bodied flavor with a higher ABV than standard lagers. Known for its edge and intensity, Steel Reserve is made for those who want more flavor, more kick, and a truly distinctive beer experience that’s both powerful and surprisingly smooth.
