Jack The Bum is a character from Columbus folklore. He was a man who lived down by the river (he didn’t even have a van to live in.) Jack served as a volunteer life guard for Columbus children swimming near Mill Race Park, where the Flatrock and Driftwood rivers merge to form the East Fork of the White River. Jack The Bum walks the line between Pale Ale and Amber Ale. We “bummed” the hops for this beer from Diesel Oil Stout. So both Jack and Diesel have the same hop bill. Go on, try them back to back!
