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.

Decided to pull this out of my aging collection seeing how it’s 5 years. I was kind of worried that I might have buggered it up but it’s actually still VERY good. It is mostly boozy, with that nice subtle burn, with a supporting cast of fruits.

Having it back, 6 years aged now. Opened it for no particular reason today. Soooo good. Less boozy than it was before, a bit chocolatey, still with tons of fruity flavor (berry/cherries). I wish 2018 me had bought more of these 😂

Deep red brown. Jammy then boozy with a tart lingering finish. The Belgian bready, licorice yeast is a bit covered, mostly by the ABV and copious berries added. Very nice. Thanks Paul!
