Review – Thomas Jefferson’s Tavern Ale from Yards Brewing

Part of a “revolutionary” series that includes a Tavern porter for Geo. Washington and a Tavern Spruce for Ben Franklin, Thom. Jefferson’s Tavern Ale is my first foray into beer from Yards in Philadelphia.

Pours a bright red and orange with lots of bubbles pulling upward. Aroma is wort-ish and bready. Tastes a bit green and undercooked. Because it’s a historical beer. I can’t claim with certainty that it is under done. Some baking bread notes but otherwise not tasting good to me.  Though as it warms it gets more of a maple taste that is more palatable to me.

I hope this was a random mis-fire or an old beer.
