A Pleasant Country
Brookeville Beer Farm

 

4pk of 16oz can ("Drink Fresh - J122028") picked up fm Eddie's of Mount Vernon here in Baltimore: Sometimes the label-art contains important information. I might have been less shocked by the reddish pour topped by a frothy pink head if I'd really paid attention to the overturned basket of cherries on the can. Those cherries are also present on the nose, and even more so on the tongue - vaguely reminiscent of some cough medicines, but better. The barrel is also present in the aroma, and more so to the taste, but NOT the spiciness suggested by the "RYE" stamp/brand on the barrel featured on the label. Medium bodied, slightly more carbonation than I normally enjoy, but a pleasant sensation anyway. The acholol is well enough hidden that it could be a problem if you drank more than one at a sitting, but I never felt the need, so...
