Old Scratch Amber Lager
Name - Flying Dog’s Old Scratch Amber Lager
Country - United States
Type - American Amber Lager
Appearance - Pours an amber to copperish color with a very minimal head that went away quickly.
Smell - Sweet smells of caramel and apple.
Taste - Taste had an ever so slight roasted flavor to it with hints of apple as well. Nice hoppy background to it. Different taste for a lager but in a good way.
I haven’t reviewed a lager in some time so I felt it was needed and thought that Flying Dog was a well respected brewery that I should give their lager a try. This isn’t your typical lager but Flying Dog seems to pride themselves on not being your typical brewery. It has a nice sweet taste to it at first with a hoppyness right there from the middle to end. You aren’t going to get this type of flavor in most lagers. A good brew overall.
Overall Grade – B+
