Fort

Strong Ale - American

A strong ale brewed with a ridiculous amount of pureed raspberries (over a ton of em!). Fort is an excellent candidate for cellaring and is a great food beer — especially with chocolate or duck.

This doesn't work for me. Too fruity to be a strong ale; too strong for a fruit beer. Kind of a mess.

Like a very dry wine. Little bit of tartness from the fruit flavor then the bitterness of the alcohol

I remember thinking “these should age well” when I got them. Pretty sure I’ve never been more wrong. The nose still has some raspberry but it’s just undrinkable trash unfortunately. Maybe it’ll hit its stride at the 10 year mark!

Almost like a strong raspberry wine… 18% is a bit absurd

Another D’Fish head that did not age particularly well... I am sure it would have been great a few years ago... but the raspberry went a little too far and soured (not in a good way). Ended up a drain pour. Abstaining from rating.

Bottled 10/23/15. Mildly Belgian and raspberry properties. Somewhat tart, but this has lost a lot of its luster. May have been in the bottle too long.
