Ruthie became a staple in the 1950s bar scene. Her tips were so exorbitant that they tried to impose a burlesque tax on her, leading to national fame and all charges being dropped.

This smooth and balanced non-alcoholic golden is our tribute to a Des Moines original.

Beautiful beer with fluffy white head and excellent carbonation. Smells of slightly sweet malt, also reminds me of freshly proofed dough. The initial taste follows that with a herbal bitter hop note. That malt disappears quickly and the herbal note lingers more than I would prefer.

Poured cold from a 12-ounce can into a thick-stemmed tulip. Clear pale golden color, with a thick white head that settled to a cap. Great lacing, good head retention. This has a good depth of light malt character, with a nice hit of herbal bitterness on the palate. Finish is dry, with a pleasant bitterness lingering for a fleeting moment. Light bodied, refreshing, great with food. Well done!
