Backwoods Bastard (2015)

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.

6 years old. Exceptionally smooth at this point. Normally fresh this beer is a lil hot but this one doesn’t have that issue. Still strong tasting but super smooth and delicious.
