Commercial Description:
We've created a beer to celebrate our fellow Kansans in the National Guard. Both the Army and Air National Guard seals are built around the "Minuteman," the symbol of the National Guard. During the colonial times, the Minutemen were a small, hand-picked elite force which were required to be highly mobile and able to assemble quickly. Our Minuteman beer is copper in color and rich with toasted and caramel malt character. The hopping is moderate but not overwhelming and strikes a nice balance with the malt sweetness.

On tap at the brewpub. Pours a clear copper with a thin, creamy, beige head. The nose is a yeasty burnt caramel with supporting notes of faint fruit and earthy hops. Light to medium-bodied, soft and slick with a mildly dry finish. Fruity caramel malt and lightly earthy hops at the dry finish. A tasty session brew.

4 oz Taster at the brewpub. Pour is copper ruby with not much of an off white head. Aroma of British hops and biscuit maltiness. Burnt caramel. Taste is the nose. Burnt caramel, biscuit and bittering hops in the finish. Nicely put together beer.
