Founders Brewing Co. Frootwood
Frootwood is a sophisticated Fruit Beer that masterfully balances bright acidity with deep, barrel-aged complexity. The experience begins with a vibrant tartness from the cherry ale base, which is immediately rounded by the influence of oak barrels. Layers of warm vanilla and rich bourbon notes emerge from the wood, while the addition of maple syrup provides an earthy sweetness and a signature velvety texture. This interplay between the tart cherry and the smooth maple creates a nuanced profile where the wood remains the star, taming the fruit’s edge into a lingering, multi-dimensional finish that stays elegant rather than cloying.
Appearance. Deep amber with distinct ruby-red highlights (SRM 14-17); displays a fine-textured, off-white to light pink head with moderate retention and delicate lacing. Clarity is generally clear with a slight, natural fruit-induced haze.
Aroma. High intensity featuring prominent tart cherry and sweet maple syrup notes. The barrel influence is significant, contributing rich vanilla, toasted oak, and a subtle bourbon-like spirit character. Malt presence is low, offering a faint toasted cracker scent, while hop aroma is virtually absent to allow the fruit and wood to dominate.
Taste. Initial impression is a burst of tart cherry balanced by an earthy, maple sweetness. The mid-palate reveals complex wood-derived flavors of vanilla and charred oak, accompanied by a gentle bourbon warmth. Hop bitterness is very low, serving only to keep the sweetness from becoming cloying. The finish is long and harmonious, transitioning from fruit acidity to a smooth, lingering maple and oak aftertaste.
Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a remarkably velvety, creamy texture provided by the maple syrup integration. Carbonation is moderate, providing enough lift to balance the richness. A noticeable but well-integrated alcohol warmth reflects the 8% strength without being harsh.
