With Scratch #232, we’ve aimed to create a darker, more robust Amber Ale while still maintaining a bold hop presence. The substantial grain bill incorporates notes of toffee, toasted bread, and fresh baked biscuits, while two of our favorite hop varieties – Columbus and Nugget – provide a wash of pine, fresh cut flowers, and earthy spices across the palate. The addition of experimental Idaho 7 hops lends hints of peach tea and summer fruit as well as a dry, peppery finish.
