Backwoods Bastard (2017)

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.

Aromatic Scotch greets the nose, followed by luscious boozy barrel notes throughout. Warming smoothness; this has aged very well indeed!

I keep thinking 2017 is three years old, but even though its summer of 2021. Still tastes good, but probably should’ve had a year ago

Frisk, vanilje, kanskje ikke så søt som ellers (hukommelsen er ikke med), bitter. Usikker på om lagringen har gjort godt...

Tapping into the cellar for the #2017 which has toned considerably. Still getting the coffee, slight bourbon and boozyness but is toned considerably.

Fyra års lagring och den blir bara bättre och bättre fortfarande mycket god smak från fatlagringen och väldigt välbalanserad döljer alkoholen mycket väl

Age took off the burn but lost some flavor. Rating high due to it being 4 years old and ok.
