The brewery: Aristaeus Craft Brewing Company, Langhorne, Pennsylvania
Description (from the website): "A recipe inspired by a historic recipe from Gulielma Penn, wife of Pennsylvania founder William Penn, in their family recipe book. Penn’s Apple Ale (crafted with pressed heirloom apples from Manoff Market and Cidery in New Hope) is a light, approachable interpretation of the recipe that showcases a bright apple character balanced by a clean malt backbone and crisp, refreshing finish. Brewed in collaboration with Pennsbury Manor."
Would I buy it again? This isn't a hard cider, but an apple-flavored beer. Plus, there's the historical angle going, both of which made me very intrigued to try this beer. But the taste was, for me, not great. It's quite tart, and tart isn't a flavor I love in my beer. It did grow on me a bit as I drank it, but still, I don't think I would buy this beer again. Fun to try, not so fun to drink.
