4 oz. draft at Iowa TapRoom, Des Moines, IA. Aroma is caramel, bready malts, mild toffee, earthy hops as well. Taste is caramel, bready, grainy, earthy, bread backbone. Smoother mouth feel, maybe a tad thin, but works out ok.

12 oz. bottle, from the Osceola Hy-vee. Pours a light, hazy, peach color, with a medium, bubbly, off-white head. The nose is nectarines, light cloves, wheat bread, and orange peels in the finish. almost dry flavor, and a bit bitter. Light body, watery, a little astringent, and thin. This is a weak, watery, and flavorless beer. The stonefruit hints on the nose are the highlight, but the flavor is a little off, and the mouthfeel is thin and unpleasant.

12oz bottle. Horrible aroma. Putrid garbage tones. Thin, orange tinged shab lager. Macro shabby taste without the quality control. Not good.
