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?

Aroma is French Toast, taste is French Toast. Aging is BB is a plus.

Pours dark brown, but lighter than expected. Sweet aroma of maple syrup, cinnamon, and sweet bourbon. Whoa, like liquid french toast with bourbon for syrup. This beer is excellent!

Great breakfast beer! A bit strong and a bit sweet, it still goes down smooth.

Absolutely phenomenal. Vanilla? ✔️ Cinnamon ✔️ Maple? ✔️ Not overly sweet, and none of the adjuncts are overdone, or outweigh the others. As is almost always the case, everything intensifies as it warms. I do wish there was a touch more barrel influence.

So, so delicious. One of the smoothest scotch ales I have ever had, hands down. Sweet but not too sweet, syrupy but not overpowering or thick. Dare I say refreshing?
