Frootwood

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.

This a new taste and I love it. Cherry is not over powering but the maple syrup is slightly too much.

Loads of sweet/tart cherries with smooth vanilla in the back. No bitterness makes for an easy drinker.

Really like this one. Not overpowering with the cherry, and a really nice taste.

For a fruity beer this is not bad, maybe is the tastes of the bourbon barrels and maple syrup which enhances its taste.

Delicious. Tart and lightly sweet cherry, depth of flavor from the maple and bourbon barrel notes. Kind of like a kriek but less Belgian spice, more cream ale smoothness.
