French Toast Bastard (Barrel Aged Series 2022)

Scottish Ale

Backwards Bastard gets the full fledged breakfast treatment! Our malty and rich bourbon barrel-aged scotch ale is introduced to the essence of smooth Maple, warm cinnamon, and notes of sweet vanilla for an incredibly decadent brunch inspired sipper. One taste and you'd swear you were digging into your Sunday morning french toast. Breakfast for dinner anyone? What is something off my bottle

Super strong maple syrup scent. Starts out very sweet but then the scotch ale finishes a bit strong.

French toast indeed. Very sweet cinnamon maple nose. If you like sugary sweet this would be your jam.

Cinnamon, maple, zero barrel. The OG version killed this.

Tastes like the French Toast Crunch cereal they used to make. A little too artificial for me.

Derrick Affolder

Maple-forward but not cloying. The maple is thin followed by sweet pecan, creamy vanilla, rich caramel, medium/light roast coffee notes and toffee. Had to adjust the rating down because the sweetness becomes a bit too much after half. I miss BA Backwoods.

Crowd was 50/50 on this. The artificial adjuncts mask the Backwoods base which is tasty in its own right. This was ok if a bit sweet. Much prefer regular backwoods

Nice start, harsh aftertaste that I don't love against the French toast flavor. Want this on a brown vs a scotch ale.
