Bourbon Barrel-Aged Fruit-Full Fort

Bourbon Barrel-Aged Fruit-Full Fort … what?! Let’s start at the beginning.

We first took our beloved Fort and added a boatload of more berries, including raspberries, blackberries, boysenberries and elderberries to create Fruit-Full Fort – a 17% ABV ale reminiscent of a jammy red wine that’s available nationwide right now! (Check out our Fish Finder to find some near you!)

Then we took our newly released Fruit-Full Fort and aged it in freshly emptied bourbon barrels for four whole months! The result? A rich, full-bodied and berry-forward ale that’s sweet with warm notes of tawny port, vanilla, coconut and toasted oak. Full of complexities, Bourbon Barrel-Aged Fruit-Full Fort is the perfect brew to enjoy now or lay down for later!

Bourbon Barrel-Aged Fruit-Full Fort was released in 750ml bottles exclusively at our Milton Tasting Room & Kitchen on Saturday, July 28, 2018, as well as poured at the 2018 Great American Beer Festival.
