Amazingly smooth for such a strong beer. Tons of character, vanilla, nutty, smoke... Incredible.

The Bastard from the Backwoods with age is the ultimate scotch ale for me 😉

Finally breaking into this one.

Anthony P.

Yum. Sad.

Ethan Blomquist

Please age backwoods longer and it would be soooooo good. Drinking 4 year aged backwoods in 2020 is so smooth and so flavorful its amazing.

Nick L.

Last bottle. Cellared for 4 years. Delicious and mellow. Booze isn’t overpowering. Subtle sweetness to it

Grabbed this bastard from the beer fridge thinking it might be a 2019. Upon opening I see the 2016 vintage. Never had one age that long. It did VERY well. I’ll do that again. Fantastic!!!

Scott K

Still full of flavor

Jack Morrison

Cellar raid! Lots of molasses and oak and still very good sweetness on the back end with lots of oak barrel yum

Robyn W.

This one is a bit sweeter than the 2014 & 2015

Bryan

So smooth, I forgot to check it in last night

Trey Ivester

Still delicious slight fade on the bourbon

Great way to start off FRIDAY! PUMP UP THE VOLUME. Aged Ale with an aged classic.

Brisk evening sipping my favorite aged Scotch ale.

Changed. Fabulous. Wish we'd saved a case.

Revisiting another Founders brew after 1 more year. 1 month shy of 4 years since it was bottled. 11.1 % and it improved since last year. Very nice 👍. I hope I have another one left!
