Fairly clear amber and deeply copper glowing body with a nice, single to two centimetre tall, just off-white head. Aroma of grain, light funk, a dose of citrus, pine, grapefruit and especially floral and perfumey hop characateristics with a steady dose of malts and a light caramel and yeastie finish. Medium-bodied; Strong grassy and very herbal profile at firs with a big funk and yeastie/bready finish that shows alcohol, astringent grain and punch with a deeply earthy and nutty finish that seemingly has more malt than hops, even though the style shows as an IPA, with 8,1% alcohol, this shows almost like an american strong. Overall, not the greatest beer, as this shows the malt profiles more than any hops and after the flavours are all tasted - a relatively simplistic beer. I sampled this twelve ounce can purchased from BeerTopia in Omaha, Nebraska on 13-February-2019 for US$9,99 sampled in my hotel room in Arlington, Virginia on 27-April-2019.

Thanks Vanessa! Crowler to mug.
The appearance was a dark brown color with a finger’s worth of almond colored foamy head. Fell off at a good pace to leave some light stringy lace.
The aroma had a good dose of sweet and roasty nuts encasing a nice caramel/toffee clean maltiness. Some earthy to grassy and leafy assortment of low bitter hops.
The flavor had a fabulous blend of the prior noted aromas to meld nicely into the aftertaste and slide gently into the finish.
The feel was about medium bodied, perhaps just a touch under with a good sessionability about it. Fairly low carbonation, but I didn’t mind, probably the whole \"crowler\" effect and the fact that it was send from Nebraska. ABV felt good as projected by the brewer.
Overall, pretty nice brown ale that I would have again if I could get it.

Draft at HopCat, Lincoln, clear orange in color, lasting head. Aroma is light fruit, maybe yeast.
Flavor is pretty nondescript. Maybe fruit, and a mild astringent floral bitterness. Body is on the lighter side. Weak flavor.
