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.

Founders och fatlagring... Blir guld nästan varje gång. Döv övermogen dammig frukt och tung trevlig fat, vanilj och sirap. Tänkte det lät halvdant man fan vad gott. Bra till LOTR 2

If it was a bit more tart cherry would've been perfect. Too overpoweringly sweet

Tastes of a slightly tart cherry lambic with bourbon flavors that are very well-balanced. Maple syrup flavor isn't prominent, but contributes to the overall flavor. Fresh cherry taste in the finish.

A very smooth, tasty barrel aged porter. Another drink I would not have expected to find in a casino

It’s cherry but it’s not medicinal. Pretty light overall, not too tart by any means. Vanilla and maple are just barely evident. Would be great paired with some cheese

Best by over a year ago, LOL! Bought a four pack, failed to check in, had one left in the fridge... Wanted to compare it to last year's notes. Oh, well. Better than I remember it! Very nice! A bit sweet, but very nice flavors. I would buy that again.
