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?

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.

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

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!

Meh. Honestly it’s too sweet for how thin it is. If it had a maltier backbone or had some spices to balance the sweetness it would be much better
