French Toast Bastard

Scotch Ale / Wee Heavy

Backwoods Bastard gets the 4-star breakfast treatment. Our bourbon barrel-aged Scotch Ale is introduced to maple syrup, cinnamon, and sweet vanilla for a decadent brunch-inspired sipper. Breakfast for dinner, anyone?

You can smell the sweetness on this one, super rich French toast flavor which goes really well against the backwoods bastard flavor. Super solid beer as always from founders.

Not too over the top with the maple, but it hits just right in the aftertaste. Medium to low body, which is malt forward, but tamed a bit with the barrel notes.

Great beer. Liquid maple cinnamon sugar. Never had a scotch ale with adjuncts before. This works well. Wife says it tastes like a really bad mixed drink. Lol

I showed my ass for this beer it’s that good. I may or may not have poured an entire one out over the summer cuz I was so fucked up and that should be a cardinal sin, I deserve to go to hell for it. This bitch is literally liquefied French toast

Liquid French toast with bourbon maple syrup. Aging has helped it a great deal.

Aroma triggered memories of syrup slathered pancakes / French toast / waffles! Aunt Jemima more than maple. As expected very sweet backbone. Alcohol pronounced. Smooth and light bodied which is unexpected. Almost has a light spice - hint of cinnamon?
