Tastes Like Fruit: A Night With Batlow 'n' Brau
The Scratch pays tribute to orchard-grown produce.
Overview
If an apple a day keeps the doctor away, then surely a cider does too? If you're willing to believe that that's the case, you can get a head start on the next week or so at the Scratch's ode to fruity alcoholic beverages.
At Tastes Like Fruit, the Milton bar is paying tribute to drinks that owe quite a debt to orchard-grown produce. Officially, the evening is a celebration of Beard and Brau Farmhouse Brewery and Batlow Cider, who teamed up to create apple farmhouse ale Bon Pommes — but all things apple are in the spotlight.
That includes more cider than you could possible consume, be it traditional, mulled or otherwise. Yes, warm alcoholic concoctions are on the menu; 'tis the season for it, and all that. With winter in mind, patrons are encouraged to don their warmest knitted jumpers and bring a rug to snuggle up in. Just be prepared to get both covered in crumbs from the Alphabet Cafe's tasty snacks, because there'll be plenty of those on offer, too.
