Frootwood Mothership Series 15

Fruit Beer

We took a crisp, light-bodied cherry ale and hid it away in oak barrels that have held both bourbon and maple syrup. After a lengthy stint, it emerged a changed beer, blanketed in notes of warm vanilla and earthy sweetness. The wood proves itself the star of this beer, adding depth and taming the tart cherry while the maple imposes a velvety texture that lingers for not a moment too long

Nailed it. Perfect combination of cherry tartness, sweet maple syrup, and just a kiss of bourbon spice. 👌🏽

Well not as I remember from the 2017 bottle, but that was also aged about a year when I drank it. Will age some of these, but for now....solid 4!

It is sweeter than I remember from the last version a few years ago. Still good and smooth. Maybe could use a little more time in the barrel.

Our precious Frootwood has returned! After a two hour drive to the mothership we are again enjoying our favorite brew.

Was getting fruity notes but also that sweet bourbon taste. Very nice creation here. No complaints. Tastes exactly how it should.

So good. A little less strong maple than last time, but still so smooth. With great appreciation to the friend of a friend who got it to me all the way from Michigan!!

A better version of the eccentric collab I had the other night. Still really boozy but pretty good.
