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?

One of my favorite beers of all time which I’m really surprised about because I don’t like beers this strong.

Unique and flavorful. Not my style, but I get it. Rich and strong, like drinking a malty syrup soup.

Wow! French toast in a bottle. Vanilla, cinnamon, maple and bread aroma. Boozy vanilla, slightly bitter cinnamon and syrupy bourbon maple taste. Nice!

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

Huge maple syrup flavor. Vanilla and cinnamon come through after and then fades into the slight smokiness of the Scottish ale.

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

Smooth, sweet, and a wee bit boozy. Nice balance of maple, cinnamon, vanilla, and boozy oak over Scotch ale. I do enjoy a good wee heavy. Delicious. Cheers to those who have served and all still serving. 🇺🇲🎖️Happy Veterans Day🎖️🇺🇲

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.
