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.

WOW! Their description is spot on. Oak IS the spotlight, with a hint of bourbon in the background. There is a touch of sweetness. And the sour cherry IS moderated beautifully, with a huge depth of character. A unique and enjoyable elixir.

Split one of these with Linda and mine portion is almost gone! Reminds me of a cross between Rubeus and Cerise.

Very delicious. The fruit flavor is nice and it cuts the bourbon flaovers down. Don't really detect maple but there really is no lingering finish. Is very smooth. Easy drinker.

Holy shit it’s back! I loooove this beer and haven’t had it in so long. Cherry with an oaky and slightly sweet maple taste. Just fantastic. Raising that rating.
