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 awesome, can’t taste any booze (dangerous for 11%), but hoping for a bit more backbone. Still very tasty.

Great beer for a chilly day. I haven't had a barrel aged beer in quite some time. This really hits the spot.

Delicious but I could not finish an entire bottle by myself due to the severe sweetness.

This is a sipper, glad I shared it. Wonderful flavors of cinnamon, vanilla and maple. It warms you up even on a hot humid Florida evening. 86 degrees today.

It really does have a Maple syrupy start and a Buttery sweetness, which hides any alcohol burn TOO well...

Wish this were not such a high ABV because it is fantastic and I’d like to drink more of it. Tastes like maple syrup without the the sickening sweetness.

A French toast we heavy. Definite, maple syrup, scented. Like a blue I want my salad that's why I got it cause I knew somebody else would want it back on there. Look up the movie. Yeah nice that's not a bison. I don't know what that is. What is this lled?

On the first sip the maple flavor is very prominent, but later the bourbon and vanilla come through. It’s a good scotch ale!

Paw Brewing

Maple syrup and vanilla aroma in a mahogany color with a very slight foam. Lots of sweet maple syrup, vanilla and slight cinnamon followed by a savory bourbon. Fans of maple syrup will enjoy this. The 11.1% sneaks up on you.

Nice, rich, delish. Subtle maple, light cinnamon, perfect vanilla. Light barrel. Perfectly done in my book.
