Where to get it

Sold in PA, CT, DC, DE, MA, MD, NJ, NY, OH, VA, WV.

  • Cans to go
  • Growler fills
  • Bars and restaurants
  • Bottle shops
  • Beer distributors
  • Grocery stores
  • Convenience stores

Sold through wholesalers across Pennsylvania and ten nearby states and DC. In Pennsylvania that means cases and kegs at licensed beer distributors, six-packs and twelve-packs at grocery and convenience stores with a beer license, and draft at bars. The Hershey brewery sells everything to go from its General Store and fills growlers in the tasting room, and the Brew Finder on the site locates retailers by zip code. Scratch series small batches stay at the brewery.

Aroma

Grapefruit, pine and mango with a sweet malt backing.

Appearance

Deep orange amber and clear with an off white head.

Taste

Juicy citrus and resin over caramel malt, with a strong bitterness that keeps it from getting sweet.

Overall

A cult favorite. Grab it fresh when it hits the shelves in late winter.
