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.

Draft @brewery. Mild sweet caramel malt aroma. Clear copper with a large off-white head. Sweet barley malt and hay flavor. Light body, moderate carbonation.
