Kingston Pale Ale

A smooth tasting beer well liked by friends and brewmasters. It's one of those beers that does not fall into any one type of judging styles, due to the munich malt. I keged the first batch and have bottled every since. It will go out for sale/parties soon it's that good - look out for the Reggae label.
