Parched by Scotts Brewing is a captivating American Amber Ale that tantalizes the senses. With an ABV of 5.0%, this cider-inspired brew boasts a golden amber hue and a creamy off-white head that leaves a delightful lacing on the glass. The aroma is an intense hop experience, featuring bright citrus notes of grapefruit, orange, and tangerine, complemented by hints of pine and resin that add complexity. The flavor profile is bold and hoppy upfront, with a burst of citrusy hops and a slightly bitter backbone, balanced by a subtle sweetness from the malt, creating a smooth and rounded finish. The medium-bodied mouthfeel is enhanced by a crisp carbonation, which amplifies the hop flavors and provides a refreshing bite. A blend of Mosaic, Citra, and Amarillo hops creates the distinctive citrusy and aromatic character, while a combination of pale, caramel, and crystal malts contributes to the amber color and light malt sweetness. Overall, Parched is a well-balanced American Amber Ale that showcases the vibrant flavors and aromas of hops, making it a highly drinkable and sessionable beer.
