Dubuque, IA? Mine states that it is brewed in Syracuse, NY. Anyway, I've been curious about this been ever since a large stack of it mysteriously appeared at my beer distributor one day, and quickly started vanishing week after week. This beer has a very complex, rich, nutty flavor, but the alcohol content is obviously high enough to still be noticable through all that richness. Even so, a great beer. [PS: Beware! I had one bottle in my six pack blow up on me like a science fair volcano. I had yummy brown ale all over my kitchen counter instead of in my stomach where it was supposed to be.] [PPS: Since this is VERY craft brewed, quality varies greatly from batch to batch. The second six pack I bought wasn't nearly as good as the first.]
