Fruit-Full Fort (2018)

Strong Ale - Other

A twist on our beloved Fort, Fruit-Full Fort is brewed with four types of berries … raspberries, blackberries, boysenberries and elderberries. This blend of dark berries creates a depth and complexity reminiscent of a jammy red wine. We punched up the malt bill with Munich malt in this new version of Fort to provide a firm backbone and help balance the tart flavor of the brew’s berry blend. Clocking in at 15%-18% ABV, Fruit-Full Fort is dark maroon red in color with aromas of velvety cherry and berry sweetness, and flavors of raspberry and blackberry.

Aged this one for 4 years. Still fruit forward with the flavor. Strong presence of barrel aged sugar. I’m going to sit on the other two for longer. This has potential to be awesome in the years to come.

Definitely prefer fresh. 6/29/18. ton of blackberry fruit tang/tannins and light astringency. more melanoidin, jammy character changed to a sharper dry red wine character. Mostly. Warming up nicely. very strong cabernet wine like beer now. Boozy warmth.

Still nice fruit notes. Kind of like a brandy now honestly. Strong alcohol presence and quite a bitter, drying aftertaste.
