Troegs - Scratch Beer Update

From Troegs:

Fall is an insanely popular time of year for beer releases, and our brewers have been tirelessly brewing up a horde of new Scratch beers over the past few weeks for your imbibing pleasure.

After a soft release at August’s “Full Moon Firkin” event, Scratch #111 - HopCyclone Harvest Ale has hit our draft lines in the Tasting Room. The bold hop bill starts with Columbus and Crystal hops for bittering. We then further intensify the aroma by adding plenty of whole flower Mt. Hood hops to our hopback vessel. Finally, we apply a healthy dose of Galaxy and Motueka hops via our HopCyclone during dry-hopping to push this beer over the edge. The result is an aggressive IPA-style Harvest Ale with plenty of lip-smacking juicy hop goodness and a tinge of dry spiciness due to the addition of a small percentage of rye malt. Scratch #111 is also available in cases, six-packs, and single bottles through our General Store.

Next up is our annual Fest Lager to commemorate the German tradition of Oktoberfest. Although it boasts more of a hop presence than most Festbiers, Scratch #112 still maintains the classic malt character that you’ve come to expect from the style. Scratch #112 is currently available on draft in our Tasting Room as well as in cases, six-packs, and single bottles through our General Store.

Scratch #113 – IPA, another interpretation of a Session IPA, is now available in our Tasting Room. An exercise in minimalism, we brewed this session-strength IPA with just two hop varieties and one type of malted barley. Although we kept ingredients to a minimum, Scratch #113 packs maximum flavor and aroma. The one-two punch of Cascade and Centennial hops delivers a fresh citrus-forward aroma and clean, bitter grapefruit finish. Scratch #113 is available on draft only.

Finally, look for our annual Fresh Hop Ale in the next few weeks. As usual, we will release this enduring fan favorite on draft in the Tasting Room and in bottles through our General Store.
