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.

Remembered this being better. All the flavors are there on the aroma and taste, just finishes more thin and dry. Still good, and one of the better ones for the style.

Un grand plaisir de boire à nouveau cette bière. Tout ce qui est annoncé y est. C’est rond chaleureux et gourmand comme on aime même si on reste quand même bien sûr l’alcool au final.

You Bastard! So yummy, this Scottish ale has some subtle sweet caramel notes and the barrel aging is just right for an easy sipping beer!

Please no, say it ain't so. Bourbon nose still, but the mouth feel...the buttery goodness is gone. It got thin....WTF Founder's?

I have not had this in several years and was happy to find the latest version in the store. While good it is not as thick as past versions. Mouthfeel is kind of thin but still a nice scotch ale.
