Gold
A strong golden ale built on honey, flaked oats and maize, rye and wheat, with the honey coming from Fruitwood Orchards. Bitterness is noticeable at 42 IBU, yet the body stays smooth. At 8.0% ABV it pays homage to Thomas Jefferson, recreated with Philadelphia's historic City Tavern after the beer Jefferson made at Monticello.
