Beer Review 115: Yards General Washingtons Tavern Porter

by

Hello Beer Friends Nation!

Holy crap… the 4th of July is almost upon us.  What better way to creep towards the official holiday of BBQ’s then drink (and review) some of our Founding Father’s Brews?  Yard’s is a fantastic brewing out of Philadelphia that has been known for their Pale Ale and Brawler, with ESA (Extra Special Ale) as their flagship (look for them in a upcoming Featured Brewery segment).  Yards also did a very cool thing for us history nerds out there… they found beer recipes from a few of our Founding Fathers (George, Tommy and Benny) and re-created the brew to modern day standards.  So sit back, crack open an old school brew and when it gets too hot by the pool or BBQ, come inside and watch some reviews.  Founding Fathers!  Cherry Tree!  Historical Beer!
