Yards - Thomas Jefferson's Tavern Ale

Yards has recreated Thomas Jefferson Tavern ale - a strong golden ale - from ingredients originally specified by Jefferson himself for semi-annual brewing at his estate, Monticello. I purchased a case of the "Ales of the Revolution" which includes "Poor Richard's Tavern Spruce; Thomas Jefferson's Tavern Ale; and General Washington's Tavern Porter.  I will review the over tow later in this blog.

The ABV is 8.0 and the IBU rating is ??
Style - Strong Ale
Glass to use- Pint Glass or Mug
Delivery 12oz Bottle

Not recommended for extended cellaring.

The Pour - Amber in color.  The white head disappears in a few minutes.
Aroma - Sweet, malty and hoppy.
Taste - Sweet and malty not as hoppy as an IPA.  Just the right amount of hops.
Mouth Feel - Very smooth and low carbonation.
Drinkable - A very drinkable ale, an every day brew but watch out for the 8%..

This will go good with cheese and grilled meat..

This beer gets a Duper rating of A-.
