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?

I forgot to take a pic and check in last night! Too excited watching the Hanson brothers play old time hockey. Eddie Shore!

There's a lot going on here. Strong maple flavor, a good mix of cinnamon, vanilla, and sweetness that definitely evokes french toast. I wasn't sure about a barrel aged scotch ale, but this is definitely a solid beer, and (pleasantly) lighter than a stout.

From last weekend. Barrel aged scotch ale with maple syrup, cinnamon and vanilla. Yeah, a lot of flavor! Nailed the French toast aspect here. Bourbon kicks it all up a notch. Excellent!

A lot going on here. Really, it's almost too much. For me, the added vanilla and the barrel influence puts it over the top; I'll stick to the regular backwoods bastard.

Incredibly strong. Feels warm in my gut. It’s a volatile syrupy potent beverage that needs to be respected and not trifled with. It has a sweetness to it that is quite distinguished. Sip slowly and sip often.
