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.

3/4 went in the chili 1/4 went in me. Then wine. Then rye. What a day to be alive.

Another exceptional year for this barrel aged brew. Great boozy, oak rich malt flavors.

Duidelijke bourbon smaak en een lichte rook smaak. Deze is niet te overheersend maar wel duidelijk. Lekker rustig weg drinken

Sometimes it is easy to take Founders for granted due to being readily available. This is just always delicious and you know what to expect. Bottles in October and boozy caramel deliciousness!

So damn good. The oak barrel truly stands out in this. Founders has that Big Barrel D Energy that few can match
