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.

Fridge clean out. More smooth over the years but still cough syrup-like

Another cellar find, 750mL. Not as offensive as it was fresh

Released March 17, 2017 i Sweden. Best before Dec. 19, 2017. Light hazy, copper colored beer with a thin head. Red berries, strawberry, plum, sweet caramel, cherry, maple syrup and a hint of bourbon is still here! Sweet but very tasty!

Sweet. Cherry forward. Notes of vanilla. 7 years old. Not quite as old as the others. But still good one.
