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 don't want to be too harsh, because this is very drinkable, but it is just not my taste. It tastes too much like you are drinking cherry liqueur as opposed to drinking an ale.

Normally I like cherry but this not so much. Bottle isn't the freshest so maybe I'll update the judgement if I can get a fresh taste.
