Place of Purchase: Ulrich's Meat Market in Pella, IA
Full-screen

Country/Region of Origin: Knoxville, IA

Tasting Conditions: Chilled and bottled

Price in Iowa: $1.99

Description: a frothy, amber brew

Notes:I picked this root beer up one day when I was meat and bakery shopping in Pella.  It initially had a nice rich flavor, but the metallic flavors began to overpower everything.  I'm not sure if it is brewed in metal kegs or if something else is adding the flavor, but I didn't like it about half-way through the bottle.
