Skootch
Bonn Place Brewing Co.

 

 

Pint on draught at the brewery. It pours a cloudy, bright orange color with a thin, bright white cap and clinging lacing. The smell is a bit subdued with subtle citrus and floral hops. Its taste opens primarily malty with balancing sweet tangerine, honeydew melon, and a hint of strawberry at mid-sip. The Huell Melon hops complement the Mosaic quite well. It's fruity but mellow with only slight bitterness at the finish. This ale has a moderately thick and creamy mouth feel with an appropriate level of carbonation and the 7.4% ABV seems just right. Overall, Skootch is a flavorful, refreshing, and thoroughly enjoyable DIPA.

 

 

 

16 oz can - no date that is legible - there was something printed on the bottom but its illegible.

pours a hazy dark orange golden color, very thick head. excellent head retention and lacing. aroma isn't overly strong - just nice pleasant fruity hops - orange, berry, melon, kiwi notes. similar taste, starts a bit sweet but there is some finishing bitterness to balance it out. medium bodied, slick mouthfeel.

address on label indicates it was brewed at Weyerbacher's facility
