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.

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.

Ages well. Like your Mom. Had this one at least four years. Like your Mom. Boozy would probably smooth out in another four. Like your Mom. Tasty. Mom.

The actually managed to put raspberries forward in a high ABV beer. It’s so good and so smooth. The more I drink the funny I think I am.

Pours with a raspberry aroma, color of light caramel tinged with raspberry, tastes of light caramel with chocolate raspberries, smooth, finishes with a warming alcohol note. Nice porch sipper on a Friday evening.
