Scratch #16-2008 combines the bitterness of two aroma hops, the lush sweetness of honey and malt and an earthly yeast taste creating a Winter Warmer designed to ward off the coldest days.
The dark, rich amber color comes from a combination of molasses and crystal malts; the Thames Valley brings a distinct earthly flavor; while the blend of hops creates fruity (Amarillo) and piney (Cluster) bitterness.
The Winter Warmer ends with a slight warming sensation from the elevated alcohol content. Enjoy this one throughout the winter months.

Courtesy of markwise. The pour is clear copper with thin off white head. The aroma has notes of prunes, dirty figs, dried cherries, some brighter fruit notes, brown sugar and a decent alcohol sense. The taste is smooth and understated with malts, floral hops and shriveled dark fruitiness.
