Beer of the Week

The beer: A Pleasant Country

The brewery: Brookeville Beer Farm, Brookeville, Maryland

Description (from Untappd and the can): "Sagamore rye barrel aged Belgian double with Marciano cherries added in the ferment. ... Bourbon and cherry ride an oaken vanilla swirl. Notes of raisin and fig compote."

Would I buy it again? This is a very good beer, and I do enjoy it quite a lot. You can taste the cherry and definitely taste the vanilla. But these barrel-aged beers are rarely easy to drink, and this is no exception. I would buy this again, but it's too heavy and thick to be anything more than an occasional treat.
