Dogfish Head Fort

Brewed by Dogfish Head Brewery
Style: Fruit Beer
Milton, Delaware USA

pours an opaque dark copper with no head. Aroma is very tart and sour, with some caramel and hops hidden in the background. Some definite hits of cider in the flavor, but the raspberry and booze is definitely prevalent. Smoother finish than expected, not too dry. Some spices are presently as well- cinnamon mixing in with the alcohol. Quite nice for a fruit beer.

750, capped. Thanks, John! What an absolutely classic 40th birthday. Pours a murky pinkish brown with a dense, creamy tan head. Big boozy vodka nose, hot and twangy. Big fresh raspberry notes power through as well. Creamy, thick, sticky body, plenty of prickly carb. Cinnamon, raspberries, brown bread, and doughy malts on the mid-palate. Long hot vodka twang finish that rises up into your nostrils and flares them out. Phew. Don’t light a match around this stuff. What a cocktail. John mentioned many times that it’s not a beer anymore at this state, barely even a barleywine at this point. Have to agree. More like a yeasty raspberry flavored Cape Cod.

750ml from Trinity Liquors in Spring Hill, FL. Pours an extremely cloudy red-brown. Almost like watered down V8. Aroma is rubbing alcohol, cranberries, raspberries, and plums...Tastes like really alcoholic champagne...A ton of alcohol and some sour fruits...and some cough syrup. Destroys your palate...just a horrible alcohol bite...This beer is awful...I cant believe they sell this shit...I personally will never consider buying it again nor will I allow anyone else to buy this...what a disgusting alcoholic mess...Do not drink this. The worst "beer" Ive ever had.

What a beer to kick you in the nuts like a donkey would, then try this. Super ober alcohol and massive amounts of raspberries. Not a beer for just one person, share with at least 6.

750ml. 2008 vintage. Pours hazy dark orange with a small off white head. Aromas of raspberries, malts, and booze. flavors of sweet malt and fruit, raspberries up front, the finish is all sweet fruit and a lot of warming alcohol. Decent brew, I think this could be a lot more enjoyable with a couple years on it.

Pours a murky orange with a short lasting fizzy white head. Nose of raspberries, honey and alcohol. Some spice coming through in the taste and tons of alcohol warmth. Complex and fruity.

Botella, thanks a bunch for sharing Pinball! Cloudy red-brown colour. Fruity sweet yeasty aroma with raspberries. Good filling mouthfeel. Sweet bit dark fruity raspberry alco flavour... also some strawberry noticed...the alcohol makes the flavour quite bitter-sweet... pleasant but rather too sweet. Small sips are best.

Bottle shared by Hallinghansen. Beautifull hazy deep orange amber body with a creamy beige head. Aroma is heavy sugary fruit like sweets. Notes of paint and dark dried fruit like raisins. Flavour is ripe fruit and loads of alcohol. Softly carbonated. This beer was too insane and too alcoholic. I would like to taste a version with only 12% alcohol.
