12oz bottle. This is better than I had anticipated. Hazy yellow-tan body. Thin, glass-rimming, white head. Zesty peppery aroma, bready, a touch or rye in there when it is pointed out, but nothing major. The Citra hops really add to the fresh feel, but it still stays comfortably in Pilsner territory. Enjoyable beer, solid example of the style.

Bottle: Pours hazy amber with a small, off-white head. Caramel, light spice scent. Taste is slightly tangy caramel malt, toast, a bit of sweet spicing. OK.....grew a little too sweet towards the end.

12oz bottle. Hazy light orange-tan body. Pronounced unappetizing canned peach aroma. Medium to light bodied. Tastes like an insipid, poorly brewed Blonde with neutered, forced peach tones. Really not that good.

Draft at Iowa Taproom, De Monies. 3-16-2016,from notes. Raven feather black color, no head when it arrived at the table. The aroma is bitter chocolate, some grain and chocolate notes. The flavor is bitter chocolate, weak roast and a bit of sugar. Nice dry finish with a somewhat smooth mouthfeel. This breweries standard stout offering. Really weak in the body category. Not bad just very ordinary.

Bottle. A- Peach, gummies, wheat. A- Yellow color, hazy liquid, white head. T- Peaches, gummies, wheat. P- Light body, average texture, average carbonation, slightly off balanced finish. O- Kind of like peachie-o candies but a bit more artificial. Like a peach gummy. The peach was there and it was soft but too much fake taste going on. Could have been a lot better.

I liked this a lot more than I expected. Brown color, initially a head that quickly fades to nothing. Aroma has sweet wheat and banana. Sweet beer, more banana and wheat flavor, lightly roasted, alcohol is hidden but there is a mineral quality and it seems very close to a German example.

Draft/Fest. A- Malty, cocoa. A- Black color, dark liquid, tan head. T- Subtle berry, cocoa, malty. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, bland finish. O- Judging by the name I hoped for some raspberry, coffee, and chocolate. Well, I got a tinge of raspberry, no coffee, and a hint of cocoa. An alright beer but don’t expect it to taste like the name.
