COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
We took a crisp, light-bodied cherry ale and hid it away in oak barrels that have held both bourbon and maple syrup. After a lengthy stint, it emerged a changed beer, blanketed in notes of warm vanilla and earthy sweetness. The wood proves itself the star of this beer, adding depth and taming the tart cherry while the maple imposes a velvety texture that lingers for not a moment too long.

UPDATED: JUN 12, 2023 Aus der Flasche im 2023-05 getrunken. Diese Sour erinnert an eine Rote Grütze mit deutlichen Erdbeer/Kirschnoten und Vanilie Soße. Flüssiger Nachtisch - wunderbar!

ardeo (1890) - Flémalle, BELGIUM - JAN 27, 2023
UPDATED: JAN 27, 2023 Très jolie rousse à mousse blanche. Nez subtil sur la cerise, le caramel et l'alcool. Bouche sucrée, goûteuse sur les fruits genre cerise avec une présence marquée du bourbon en arrière-bouche. Sirupeuse, 'alcooleuse' ... : une bonne Founders mais un peu décevante pour moi car manquant de nuances.

oh6gdx (44952) - Vasa, FINLAND - DEC 31, 2022
UPDATED: DEC 31, 2022 Draught (Little Pub, Vaasa). Reddish orange colour with a small off-white head. Aroma is cherries, some mild wood, alcohol as well as some mild maple. Flavour is cherries, syrup, some wood, alcohol and mild tart red berries as well. Good in the beginning, but before finishing the glass it already gets a bit too sticky.
