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.

I would like to try the cherry ale first, then give this a shot. As it stands it's a bit linger-y, despite the description.

From 11.21. Really thinned out and lost most of the flavor.

Cherry biertje...... helaas gusher..... bottle datum in 2021. Ik vrees dat het beste eraf is..... zit een hintje bourbon in maar neem aan dat dit beter was toen het bier vers was....

Zeer goed. Lichtzoet, roodfruit, en de barrel proef je goed terug.

Vrij zoet van de maple, redelijk bourbon maar de zoetheid overheerst wel alles.

Very unique beer. I thought the cherry wood be overwhelming but instead it was well balanced. Nice sweet flavor profile. Can taste the barrel flavor but it balanced nicely from beginning to end.

Too sweet. Love the idea, but there is too much maple/cherry sweetness. Needs a balance
