Back Forty

Beer Profile

Back Forty

Back Forty is a high-gravity amber ale featuring a rich amber hue and a complex malt backbone. The addition of locally crafted wood-fired maple syrup imparts a subtle sweetness layered with caramel notes, while the cherrywood smoked malt introduces a delicate smoky aroma and a hint of warmth on the finish. This beer balances its robust malt character with a smooth, full-bodied mouthfeel, creating a nuanced interplay between sweet and smoky flavors that unfold gradually. The moderate bitterness allows the maple and smoke elements to shine without overpowering the palate.
