Frootwood (2017)

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.

17-1ish, 6.5yr o. Jammy, Rich cherry. Notes of candied dark fruits. Starting to mellow further. Good though

Bottled 12/20/16 and seems to have held up well. Leaving original rating of 4 but I think I’d do the same today

Smooth fruit that’s sweet with cranberry raspberry and some vanilla malt. The bourbon is a bit lost in this fruity mix but it’s a tasty variation.

Una excelente Ale hecha con cerezas y añejada en barrica de Bourbon, sorprende lo bien que se mantuvo la acidez de las cerezas y se balancea con el dulzor del Bourbon, para maridaje unos chocolates de cerezas al licor, salud 🍻🏈
