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?

Not that I could drink a lot of this, but I’m rating it heights because the brewer did exactly as intended: liquid French toast

One of the best brews I've ever had, especially for the alcohol percentage.

Haven't had one in months. Ages gracefully, brings out the maple more. The finish is a little harsher. Still awesome. Would make an exceptional beer shake with vanilla ice cream

Full on French toast nose and taste. Thin compared to pastry stouts (of course, due to style, just unexpected with those flavors)

SUPER syrupy sweet. Too sweet imo. It does taste like French Toast though.

Tastes like IHOP French Toast slathered in syrup. Too sweet for my taste.

Canned (growler) in late 2018, broke it out for birthday consumption. A little flat but otherwise delicious. I liked when released and love it after cellaring.

Amazing sweet decadence. Tons of maple, cinnamon, sweet caramel. A nip of smoke. Tremendously good sipping beer.

Murky amber pour thin tan ring. Super maple syrup and booze aroma. Sweet. Heavy. Good but a real masher.
