12oz shorty bottle. Deep, opaque chestnut brown. Minimal, put lasting head. Sweet aroma, some dry hops pervading through. This is quite a well done Bock beer in my opinion, balanced, smooth and drinkable. Sweet brown sugar and chocolate. One of the better stateside examples I’ve had.

12oz shorty bottle. Filtered thin orange-tan color. Mild non-aroma. Light malt sweetness, easy drinking. Pretty spot on, fresh and highly enjoyable. Definitely a US wheat beer, not going for German Hefe-duplication. Very nice minimal, but crisp, hop balance. An excellent beer.

12oz bottle. My first beer from Iowa. Hazy golden-yellow straw appearance. Orange vanilla aroma, maybe some peach. The taste is a little off, but the Hefe yeast is quite forgiving. Sort of crossing the line over into White Ale territory, very smooth and yeasty. Tangy orange citrus finish. Sub par stuff all the way, but may be better brewery fresh.

courtesy of tpd975. Pours clear golden with thick white head. Aroma has all the characteristics of a wit. Nice fruity aroma of citrus, spices with coriander. Taste, medium body with spices (coriander), citrus zest. Finish is crisp. Overall, a very drinkable beer, refreshing, not as bad as I had anticipated.
