Common descriptors are
The flavor of Scratch #147 originates in the Abbey Ale yeast strain, which produces a distinctive fruity character akin to raisin, fig, date, and prune. As the flavor develops, the dark fruit character endures, adding traces of toffee, chocolate, and subtle spices. The addition of Belgian Candi sugar and cane sugar boosts the ale’s sweetness, while Tradition hops offer a faint floral hop note that helps to balance the underlying sweetness.
