Visited the City Tavern in Philadelphia in October where they reproduce beers made by the founders. I really liked the one attributed to Washington(Porter), Hamilton and Jefferson. Franklin’s had a bit of spruce which I didn’t care for. My wife really liked the champagne shrub. It gave me a whole new appreciation for the founding Dad’s. They really liked their pint.

I have had a few meals there on trips to Philly...I only had the General's beer and liked it. The food was well-prepared if a bit pricey. One dessert I remember well was Martha's chocolate cake--excellent.

And yes, they were quite the imbibers, our Founders...
