Beer Description

Fall is arguably the most anticipated of the four seasons among craft beer enthusiasts. Much of this affinity can be attributed to the release of a little style known as the Fresh Hop Ale. Coinciding with the annual hop harvest, Fresh Hop Ales have become a perennial favorite throughout the craft beer community. For Scratch #161, we sourced 450 pounds of sticky, freshly-picked hops from Black Locust Hop Farm. Tucked away in the rolling hills of Northern Baltimore County in Maryland, Black Locust grows and produces an abundance of hop varieties including the wet Cascade and Chinook hops used in this succulent ale. The use of local honey sweetens the pot and pushes the alcohol content over the 8% mark. To learn more about Black Locust, please visit www.blacklocusthops.com.
