Scuttlebrau & Cross Sound
The rain is back. The skies are gray. And let’s be honest—fall kind of sucks… unless you’ve got a Scuttlebrau in hand. 🍺 This malt-forward amber lager is your cozy, copper-hued antidote to seasonal gloom. Smooth, balanced, and brewed to brighten even the darkest PNW day. Welcome to wet sock weather. We’ve got the beer to match. 🌧️🍂
P.S. — If you're chasing that crisp edge before the real cold hits, check out our Cross Sound Kölsch collab with
#silvercitybrewery. Light, clean, and ready to sail you into sweater weather. ⚓🍻
More thoughts below.
Scuttlebutt Scuttlebrau Lager: Out of the can Scuttlebrau produces a hefty amount of khaki-tan head, resting on a pool of clear amber. Receding, there remains nothing to say for lacing.
Swirling and sniffing, we recover notes of cooking herbs, honey, spiciness, and some rich earth.
Sipping, there is a dandelion-like earthen sharpness, along with some yeastiness (makin to dough), followed by some toasted bread. Overall, Scuttlebrau has a medium mouthfeel, some alcoholic warmth, and a lingering earthen sharpness.
Scuttlebutt - Silver City Cross Sound Kolsch: Out of the can Cross Sound produces an invigorated amount of off-white head, resting on a bed of pale gold haziness. Receding, there remains a thin blanket of lacing on the surface, and a tattered curtain of lacing inside the glass.
Swirling and sniffing, we recover notes of lemon citrus, cooking herbs, barnyard hay.
Sipping, much of what was in the aroma appears along with some floral and a bit of earthen bitterness. Overall, Cross Sound has a mild to medium mouthfeel, some alcoholic warmth, and a lingering semi-dry character that is concluded with some sharpness.
