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.

Le nez dégage des effluves de Bourbon. L'entrée en bouche est chaleureuse, le corps est très malté, caramélisé avec une texture sirupeuse. La finale est longue et traîne sur le Bourbon et des notes boisées. C'est un poil Boozy mais c'est réconfortant.

До этого 2 раза пил 19й год и там был и торф и плотность, взял 20й и тут только чернослив, бурбон и вода, как-то не впечатлило. В общем-то норм, но раньше было лучше)

Veel caramel, beetje siroopachtig, een klein beetje geroosterd, beetje donker fruit, rozijnen, en inderdaad iets kruidig.

Man is das ein geiler Scheiß. Stark, rauchig und irgendwie schottisch. Und über allem, kringelt sich schön das Fass rein.

01.13.20 Heerlijk zacht zoet en rijk aan geuren en smaken. Ik proef hout, karamel, rook, zoethout en milde whisky. Heel geslaagd.

Этот старик по-прежнему крут. Идёт своей тропкой, ведёт за собой отряд и даёт периодически из свой фляги хлебнуть. Молодой, ему бы постоять год-другой. Но какой же многогранный: от сушёного яблока и инжира до бурбона и дуба. Очень здорово прогревает

Monsieur Pamplemousse

Lovely aroma of stewed fruit and oaken whiskey caramel, taste adds brown sugar in to the mix. Tasty and strong sipper that disappears dangerously fast down the throat. 4.4

This tastes like sumthin' you'd quaff in a rough tankard handed to ye in the mines of Moria. Dark, rich, and with strong notes of molasses. Exactly what a dwarf like me would like, by Moradin's hairy arse.

Strong on the scotch. Really dry. It’s got some raisin mixed in with smoke. It is aggressive. And angry.
