I've been trying to get to SLB since they opened a few years ago, and finally on an early Saturday evening in Canton, we made it! They're located just off the main drag, on a looping lane that goes right by the jail! In fact, the front door looks out at the local correctional institute!
The tasting room is a large, lounge like space with a bar and also comfy chairs.
You can buy a taster train of 5 good sized samples for 6$. A good deal on it's own, and a great chance to taste their beers. Or you can buy a pint to sit back and relax with.
I'm not going to review the beers specifically because taste is very subjective. Let's just say that Canton is a college town, so this place is following the current trend of IPA'ing everything.
My only quibble with the SLB is that they're only open evenings, while my group likes to do beverage sampling trips during the day. All the area wineries are open daytime only. I believe SLB is missing out on a significant portion of the curious drinker audience. However I can see their point of catching night time drinking business.
