For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. In this case, the force of Fremont’s barrel-aged B-Bomb dominates your senses with aromas of coconut, caramel and molasses until it’s met with the blast of La Folie’s time-intensified tart, juicy cherry, apple and plum notes to send you on a trajectory you’ve never experienced.

On tap at Brouwer's Cafe for Barrel Bash (Big Wood) 2023, pours a deep dark brown / black with a small tan head. Aroma smells more like a Flemish brown than a stout, with tart fruits, roast and Worcestershire. Flavour is slightly sour, with balsamic vinegar, roast, bourbon, and dark fruits. Weird thing to blend a big BA strong ale and a Flemish red. It sort of works but isn't all that impressive.
