Troegs Releasing Scratch # 178 Rye Ale & 179 Biere de Grouch Today

From Troegs:

We released two Scratch Beers today! The first, #178 – Rye Ale features Experimental “06277” (aka “Nuggetzilla”) hops to produce a medley of delicate spices and pungent citrus fruit, while rye malt imparts a dry, spicy finish. 6.8% ABV and 54 IBU. The other, #179 – Bière de Grouch, is revisits a collaboration beer we brewed for Philly Beer Week 2012 with beer writer Jack Curtin. Just like his snark-filled rants, Jack’s beer tastes veer toward the peppery, yeasty flavor that dominates this Bière de Garde, a traditional French farmhouse style. Draft and growler fills only in the Tasting Room. 6.9% ABV and 15 IBU.
