Drink This! Field Day Brewing”No Powertools” double IPA!

Leave a comment

Iowa’s newest brewery has their first week under their belt, and I’m assuming it was a very busy week for the folks at Field Day Brewing. I was able to visit a few times and walked away completely impressed both times, not only by the beauty and layout of the building, the friendliness of the staff, but of course the food and the beer. Most breweries you like to give a cushion to as far as to when their beer will be completely dialed in, seems Field Day skipped this step and jumped right into pushing out some truly tasty beers. I love seeing different styles represented on their beer list.

On my second visit to Field Day I noticed a new double IPA on tap so naturally I gravitate towards that. “No Powertools” aroma hits you right when the beer is set in front of you. Citrus rind right in your face. The mouthfeel was velvety and creamy, excellent stuff. Double dry hopped and the Mosaic shines in this beer. Tempting, very tempting to order another, and I wish I would have as I don’t know how long this beer will last on tap or even if they are going to make anymore, but this is an IPA that I would drive back for anytime. Do yourself a favor, get to North Liberty, go and support Field Day, order some delicious food, try their terrific beers, but if you are lucky enough to see “No Powertools” on the taplist, you owe it to yourself to order it, to savor it, and Drink it!
