The Collection includes: George Washington Porter, brewed from Washington’s original recipe as found in the New York Public Library; James Madison Dark Wheat Ale, based on notes from his brewing mentor Thomas Jefferson; 1790 Hard Root Beer, a re-creation of an authentic New England-style brew in honor of Samuel Adams (and his cousin John Adams, of course); and No. 3 Ginger Honey Ale, based on notes from some of the beers made by Jefferson.
