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?

Smells like a maple glazed donut. Very French toast flavor. Pastry Scotch Ale! Freaking delicious, but one is enough. Fairly astringent finish.

Seemed surprisingly subtle on the first sip, but as it warmed up it got more over the top as expected. Mostly just too sweet. Cinnamon was more tame than most, but still too much.

For a beer with this much abv, it's smooth and sweet. Great night cap.

All maple nose. Sweeeeet, syrupy, strong cinnamon maple syrup with a boozy maple finish. Definitely French toast beer. Very nice, but good it’s only 12oz. Dessert sipper for sure.

Does what it says in the tin, as they say. Tastes like French toast and beer.

Was expecting this to be very sweet but the maple and cinnamon are not over powering . The maple does linger in the aftertaste a bit

This could be the worst beer ever. One sip and it went down the drain. Stop being cute and just go back to making good beer

By far the best scotch ale I’ve ever had. By far the best French Toast I’ve ever had. My last check in for this just disappeared.

Can’t taste the Ale at all. French toast juice. Good french toast flavor, but where’s the Ale?
