About This Beer
To craft this stunner, the Fonta Flora crew started with a blend of caramel, chocolate, and roasted malts to accentuate a base of local barley malt. Then they added locally foraged shagbark hickory bark to the boil, unleashing dark, forested tones that make this brew so deliciously unusual. Finally, the brewers aged it all in bourbon barrels, soaking the beer in oaky vanilla tones.
Tasting Notes
Look for hints of woody spice and pecan-like nuttiness stalking through notes of chocolate and whiskey caramel, with espresso roastiness and custard notes providing balance. A whisper of smoke prowls across the finish, adding even more complexity to this multifaceted beer.
