Drafting Room 14th Anniversary Ale

Bottle as Scratch 12 courtesy of BOLTZ7555. Pours a cloudy yellowish orange with a half finger white head that leaves decent lacing. The nose is malt and light citrus. The taste is caramel malt, tart citrus fruit and a bitter pine finish that lingers on the tongue for a while. Medium prickly body. Good stuff – thanks Jason!

My bottle (12oz) shared with HogTownHarry & garthicus -- courtesy of TheEpeeist. As Troegs Scratch 12. Pours a slightly hazy golden-orange with a small diminishing white head. Slightly stale aroma, a bit vegetal, along with peaches, more fruit and citrus hops. Flavour of fruit, sweet malt, citrusy hops, light spices and yeast. Average to medium bodied. Pretty good.

Bottle (12oz). Shared by blankboy with me and garthicus. As Troeg’s Scratch #12. Hazy gold pour with a large creamy off-white head. A frankly UGLY aroma to this - sour and vegetal, quite a mess. The taste wasn’t bad at all - pungent, plenty of resin/grapefruit bitterness, with simple, slightly juicy sweet malt backing. Decent body, quite astringent, average carbonation, and (in a good way) a long, pungent cat piss linger. Apart from the ugly aroma, this is a pretty decent IPA.

bottle shared by psprings... bright sunshine colored yellow has a bit of haze and a soft white head with lots of spotty lacing. it smells really fruity... grapefruit, peach and orange pith with some caramel and a light bitterness. the flavor is rather pith-y as well but obviously well past it’s prime as it lacks a punch or any real hoppy dryness. it’s pleasant nonetheless with notes of flowers and caramel with a spicy finish. it is medium bodied with a nice creamy texture and surprisingly dry mouth feel. 6/3/6/4/15/3.4

Bottle. Pours a hazy golden yellow with a small white head. Aroma of citrus, piney hops and notes of grapefruit. Flavor is hoppy with pine, citrus, grass, fruit and has a grapefruit hop bitterness with a medium body and a dry & bitter finish.

Bottle: Poured a orange amber color with not much head. The aroma was sweet, citrus, pine and hops. The flavor was nicely balanced as well, with oranges, lemons, pine and hops present. Overall, another tasty creation by Troegs.
