I bought this at the Brew Pub in Rehoboth Beach. Been saving it for a special occasion. Decided to share this with my co-worker, Matt. For an ancient ale, this is truly spectacular!! Wow, it's as if I'm drinking a beer with the girl from the tomb! =)

This is a strong fruit ale. Redone for a batch this year. It's nice to see the Ancient Ales make a return, even just for small batch.

Very unique. I haven't had anything like this before. Sweet, but you can taste the spices. I like it.

Unusual beer, but good. Fruity, with an alcohol finish.

Pretty tart! Lots of berry flavor with some honey too. Sort of like a mead mixed with a cider....but a beer.

From yesterday.... very unique. Tart smooth cranberry upfront. Then I got spruce/birch. Then some subtle herbiness and honey. Seasonal.

Smooth. I would have thought stronger. Not as flavorful as I would like compared to the tango and peach beers.

BA transfer from 02/10/16. DFH made the beer from a 3500 year old Danish drinking vessel. Herbal, fruity, weird, but tasty.

Hard to really pin down distinct flavors. Some sour fruit, not much honey, somewhat herbal with a dry finish. Nice unique brew from DFH & Swedish friends. Skol!

I don’t know how you actually pronounce “Gruit,” but all I can think of is “I am Groot.” But this is pretty good…light almost like an herbal tea, but not overly spiced. Not crazy strong.

Tart fruit notes with a little bitterness. A little too subtle, but that may be preventing too many bitter notes
