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?

Happy 14th, Lake Flying Saucer! 14 rare beers on tap and I get to try 8 of them. This one smells like French toast, and sips like sweet, smooth maple syrup. Booze doesn't get you until you're already warmed up.

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.

Wow! The initial waft of syrup is delicious, then you taste it. STRONG! Packs a punch but hang in there and wait for all the richness of this brew to assail your senses, ending with a stringent burnt taste. Amazing
