12 oz botttle from HyVee in Council Bluffs. No bottling date or expiration date anywhere on the bottle. Slightly clear and color amber with fast dying head. Aroma is lager yeast, light malt, dried leaves.

Very thin and watery with a light smoked malt aftertaste. Might have been good if it wasn’t a lager base. Just a tad too thin.
