goes well blended with our Stout Chocula for a nice raspberry/chocolate black and
tan.
OP IPA: 6.75% ABV, 60 IBU, Style: American IPA. This is brewed to be an everyday of the
year IPA that emphasizes flavor and aroma more than gratuitous bitterness.
Stout Chocula: 5.25% ABV, Style: Chocolate Stout. Designed to have a balanced
chocolate flavor without tasting like chocolate candy or on the other extreme, dry
and bitter-chocolate. Malt holds up the chocolate flavor without being sweet while
still letting the stout base shine through.
Summer Hefeweizen: 5.25% ABV, Style: German Hefeweizen. Made with 100%
German wheat, malted barley, hops, and yeast. A German Hefeweizen focused on
subtle and balanced traditional German Hefeweizen flavors. While there are the
expected clove, banana, and even bubble gum flavors, none of them dominate this
delicately delicious rendition of the German favorite.
Alsterwasser: (pronounced Ullstuh-vasser) 4.75% ABV. Alsterwasser is a form
of the German mixture of lemonade or lemon-lime soda and beer called Radler. We
make ours with our Hefeweizen and lemonade which makes this drink a German
version of a Shandy. This is a perfect session beverage on a hot summer day. A must
try!
Aged IPA Doble del Diablo: (Devil’s Double IPA, Batch 666) 12.0% ABV, 160 IBU.
This Double IPA is our brewmaster of 9 years, Dan Kiplinger’s 666th batch brewed
here at OP. We aged this keg 6 months so the hops which were already picked for
their neutral flavors, have mellowed even more. You will not find any piney, catty, or
super-citrus in this one but rather a nice neutral hop character balancing out the big
malty backbone.

Established in 2009. Peace Tree Brewing Co is a small production
microbrewery in Knoxville IA. It was started in a refurbished building and
acquired its name from a local historic landmark the “Peace Tree”. The
brewery taproom opened up in late 2009 and started serving the full flavored
beer being brewed in small batches by brewmaster Joe Kesteloot.
In March of 2010 the full packaging brewery opened and Peace Tree
Brewery began to package the flagship beers that are now it’s staples. Since
then the brewery has expanded to eight bottled beers a number of seasonal
beers and even a Cider. But Peace Tree still stays true to their small batch
roots and continues to put out interesting and experimental beers on a
regular basis. www.peacetreebrewing.com
Wild Templeton Red: ABV 7% . A red ale barrel aged in Templeton Rye Whiskey
barrels for nearly a year. A touch of whiskey, oak and some tartness from
fermentation.
Brett Cornucopia: ABV: 7%. Saison farmhouse ale brewed with local Iowa sweet
corn, mildly hopped and fermented with a Belgium saison yeast. Then aged in an oak
barrel for 10 months with Brettanomyces wild yeast.
Kolsch Style: ABV 5%. This beer is brewed with pale malted barley giving the
appearance of a golden pilsner style lager. It is actually brewed with a top fermenting
ale yeast at cooler temperatures of a lager, giving a unique and refreshing character.
This style is commonly filtered, we prefer to leave this beer unfiltered like a
Kellerbier. Kolsch is actually a beer brewed in Cologne, Germany which is why we use
the word “style”.
Blonde Fatale: ABV: 8.5%. This is an unfiltered Belgian Style Blonde Ale. The beer
is blonde in color from the pale malted barley varieties. It is delicately hopped with
Styrian Golding and Celeia for medium bitterness and aroma. Sugars are added for
higher attenuation, following the practices of some Belgian brewers. Belgian ale
yeast is used to add complex flavor esters. This beer is unfiltered and yeast is left in
for additional conditioning.
Red Rambler: ABV: 5.8%. Since the brewery is located in what was once a Nash
Rambler car dealership, it seemed appropriate to honor this history with a beer. The
Red Rambler Ale is also one of the most popular in our taproom with its deep red
color and malty flavor. The malt character is balanced with three varieties of hops. It
is a versatile beer that can be enjoyed alone or pairs well with a broad spectrum of
foods, especially flavorful meat, fish and cheese.
Hop Wrangler: ABV 6.25%. IBU 70. Hop Wrangler is a multi-national take on the
classic India Pale Ale, which is known for its intense hop bitterness, flavor and
aroma. We use American, English and Belgian malts for flavor, body and color. This
brew includes six hop additions of American and English hops, one each in the mash
and first wort, three in the boil and finally a dry hop addition in the fermenter. It is
finished with Belgian yeast which develops esters that complement the bouquet of
hop aromas.
Hop Sutra: This brew is for hop huggers. We’ve added over 2-1/2 times the hops
of our Hop Wrangler IPA with four varieties of hops in six massive hop additions.
With over 1-1/2 times the barley of our normal beers, our grist hopper was nearly
