From Festival of Iowa Beers, rich brown color, slightly sour malty taste with hops and citrus, a little thin.

The commercial description has changed. it now reads: Just the right amount of Willamette, Cascade, and Pearle hops combined with toasted Victory malt make for a perfect nutty creation. Draught at the brewpub. Clear orange-brown color with thin light tan head that laced the glass. Light flowery hop nose. Tasted of fruity hops, almost like grape candy without the sweetness. Also slightly nutty and roasty.

Pours amber slightly brown. Flavor was sour with hints of roasts. Mouthfeel was very thin. Not very good.

On tap at the brewpub: Soapy. As almost all the other beers here, this has a lemon twist ... Thin. Sourmashy. Not good. Worst here.

Light amber body with a thin white head. The aroma is bread and peanuts along with some light caramel. The taste is slightly sour with some walnuts and burnt toast. This is not very pleasant.
