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.

Thanks Dave N. !! Definitely an interesting combination with the fruit beer style and maple syrup, but actually rather enjoyable!

Wonderful flavor combinations of cherries and maple syrup. Definitely sweet but also very smooth.

Full of flavor and carbonation! Love the cherry, maple syrup, and bourbon flavors! The barrel aging is genius. Strong at 8%. Awesome job you guys from Grand Rapids, Michigan!

Bottled 09nov2021. Smooth, clean cherry taste with hints of bourbon and maple in the background. Subtle tartness. Easy to drink.

Proposta e cerveja bem interessante, aroma amadeirado e álcool do bourbon, no gosto cerejas envelhecidas no barril e maple sutil no primeiro momento, quando esquenta aparece bastante. Perde pontos apenas pela doçura um pouco excessiva. Ótima experiência
