Yep - a couple beers - both ambers. Since you are from Iowa - you may have had them even.
One beer that got me into craft beer that I loved drinking fresh, on tap, way back in the day. Dubuque Star Big Muddy Red..... It was an unfiltered, hoppy, rich amber ale. It was back in the mid 90's. I am sure it was probably not as great as I remember it - but I loved that beer.
The other one that is one of the best beers I ever had was Ambergeddon (Ale Asylum), on tap in LaCrosse - I have had it many times since - but, for whatever reason, it has never been as good as that day. Again, big, rich, hoppy amber ale.
I have been brewing, and rebrewing amber ales trying to replicate those beers....been getting closer and closer, and have a pretty mean amber ale now - but still searching for perfection. Kegging my latest attempt in a few days
