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 hate scotch ale but the combination with the awesome French toast flavors balance it perfectly. Love the maple and really does taste like French toast. To the top with a bullet.

Not a fan. Too sweet. Probably the worst Founders I've ever had.

Easily a top 5 barrel aged release from Founders. Maybe my 2nd favorite after KBS MMF.

Good but too much vanilla/maple action. Just overpowering and missing the scotch bite in the original. Great aroma however.

Can’t believe this is 11.1%. We’ll hidden. Gotta know what you’re getting into with a beer titled French toast. Does taste like it. Not terribly sweet but strong maple flavor.
