Jetty Jack

Tap to rate

Caramel, toast and biscuit shape this American amber ale, which ends in a silky-soft finish. At 5.8% ABV, Jetty Jack is the renamed Brewer's Boot Amber Ale, and it was already carrying its new name when Bosque unveiled its refreshed logo and can designs in 2019. Today it belongs to the relaunch under Marble, quality first.
