Backwoods Bastard (2020)

Scotch Ale / Wee Heavy

Expect lovely, warm smells of single malt scotch, oaky bourbon barrels, smoke, sweet caramel and roasted malts, a bit of earthy spice and a scintilla of dark fruit. It’s a kick-back sipper made to excite the palate.

Backwoods Bastard (2020) by Founders. Nice heavy, full scotch ale. Sweet, caramelly, slight smoke. It's been awhile since I've had this. As good as I remember.

Stoutkalendern 23: dan före dan bjuder på en barell aged wee heavy istället för stout. Har hittills inte blivit besviken på founders. Mycket bourbon, smörig och mjuk. Är du sugen på whiskey är det bara köra!

Had this with Christmas dinner tonight. Tasted great albeit maybe a bit young; they were bottled last month. Got a four-pack of these. Looking forward to seeing how the others age.

Damn you Founders! Another amazing unique beer. The barrel makes all the difference but this is excellent. Complex as hell but so darned tasty!

From 10/20 bottling run. Doing some hate drinking from these bastards. I do appreciate Bottlecraft playing Japanese Breakfast for me while visiting the store.

The 2020 version of the bastard that got me hooked on barrel aged beers, thus taking a bigger bite out of my booze bucks. He's still a bastard.

Bourbon, oak, vanilla and caramel in the taste. Almost medium-full body with an appropriately lower amount of carbonation. Always a treat every time and I now have a 5 year vertical that I'll continue to build.

think I still prefer a good barrel-aged stout, but this one surprised me. Nice aroma with a boozy flavor and thicker mouth-feel, or maybe that’s the COVID vaccine talking
