Created by the men of the Colony of Schuylkill - a fishing and hunting club founded in 1732 by the followers of William Penn - this concoction is one of the oldest and grandest punches in the Americas. Like many gentleman’s clubs of the era, this gang gathered, to a great extent, to fellowship with each other, and to drink. And this was their drink. The club house (which they called the “Castle”) was situated on the banks of the Schuylkill River - which runs through Philadelphia and drains into the Delaware. Many famous Revolutionary-era gentlemen (including George Washington) visited the Castle to enjoy this quaff, and now you can too. Cheers!
