Fruit-Full Fort

Strong Ale - Other

A twist on our beloved Fort, Fruit-Full Fort is brewed with four types of berries - raspberry, blackberry, boysenberry and elderberry. This juicy blend of dark berries creates depth and complexity reminiscent of a jammy red wine.

This batch tastes off from others that I have had in the past. Strong and boozy but the fruit flavors seem to be off with this particular batch.

It’s almost like wine… and more expensive than I’d typically pay for wine too. That said, it was fairly tasty.

Hmm, 18%, but you don’t tell us this on the bottle. Quite a bit fallen, but the fruit holds up. Not so good but maybe a beer lost in the Meadosian morass.

It’s Huge- but doesn’t taste like 18%. Going to put a couple in the cellar to see how well it ages

Gave em 12 today. 2 hrs driving and 10 hrs working. It was a busy day. Ok I can kinda taste the raspberry and blackberry if I try real hard but I wouldn’t know a boysenberry or elderberry if you filled my mouth with either. It’s not too fruity to me 🍻

I regret opening this on my own. This 18% beer should have been shared as a taster among a few people. My rating is probably a bit harsh but I am struggling with the boozy berry taste. It delivers what is advertised.

Like jam on toast. Fruit on malt with just a tad of booze. Bottled on 06/28/2018

Definitely prefer regular Fort, but this was interesting. Berry notes are noticably more tart here, and there is a slight bitterness present too

As with most DFH beers, I can always appreciate the commitment to trying new things, and no different here: I respect the efFORT. But it simply doesnt improve upon the OG. Fruit is on the medicinal side and minimizes the overall complexity.

Don't remember what vintage it said in the store at Dogfish, and can't read the date unfortunately. 03/15/1? is what I can make out.

Found this in the cellar. Bottled in 2018. Still fruity after all these years! Boozy as all get out. A little chunky, but I’ll deal with that. 🍻

Bottled on 06/26/18. Purchased sometime in 2021. Opened today. A very unique beer. Starts booze heavy, then as my pallette adjusts the berry really came out. Biz didn't agree, bur she drank her half really fast. Don't even know what to rate it as.

Another taster, a definite strong fruity brew, and a bit dangerous at this ABV.
