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?

Big caramel and maple syrup flavor with sweet rich desert like finish. A great variant that does the base beer great justice!!

Maple up front but smooths out into buttery finish. Doesn’t taste this boozy but it is!

Backwoods Bastard is the winner here I think. Maybe I got the bottom of the barrel.

Slightly sour somehow... Not sure if there's pipecleaner left in this draft beer or if it is meant to taste like this.

En "arme riddere-udgave" af Backwoods Bastard. Ud over bourbonfadlagring er der ahornsirup, kanel og vanille her. SkyhĂžje forventninger, men jeg blev noget skuffet. Synes ganske enkelt kanelen bliver lidt for dominerende i smagen đŸ€·â€â™‚ïž

This is THE BEST smelling beer I've ever had! The bourbon aftertaste reminds me of stouts with a proportional cost of EUR/ABV. However, this is much more delicious! I'll forever remember the taste of cinnamon, burnt sugar, rum, bourbon and maple syrup!

Wow, great cinnamon scent. This is a real dessert beer, spicy with dark dadle marmelade. A bit onesided and intense but at the same time kicking in doors and screaming "Beer o'clock motherfxxker"
