Sweet and savory. Cinnamon isn't overwhelming, which can be difficult to do. Vanilla and maple compliment each other quite nicely.

french toast works well with the bastard’s scotch ale profile.

Had this on tap at a tap takeover a couple years back. Now it’s in distribution (finally)! And it’s still amazing.

As advertised, liquid French toast with a side of bourbon

Missing the buttery body the previous version had. Still quite good but missing that certain something

This year its elevated to a 5/5. Unlike many BA maple beers that are an ambiguous “sweet” flavor, this one genuinely tastes like French toast. Accurate adjuncts, 11.1%, and $14.99 for 4 make this a solid value beer.

Better than the brewery-only release a few years ago. Maple, cinnamon, and barrel deliciousness. Smells incredible.

Wow, lovely nose. Reminds me of that French toast cereal from the 90s. Flavor is a mix of vanilla bean and cinnamon sugar. Touch of dark roast coffee and burnt caramel. Way better than the prior version I had.

The base is my favorite Founders beer ever, and the adjuncts all but dominate it, but that’s not to say it’s pretty decadent. A touch harsh being fresh as regular Backwoods is. But the unfermentables are pretty well balanced, could’ve been a mess.

If this were not a scotch ale I would have passed. But I was intrigued and happy I tried it. Maple syrup starts out and is quickly followed by cinnamon. As it warms up the bourbon flavoring enters and just makes it a damn fine ale.

Yep, it tastes just like French toast. I feel like I should have a bacon chaser with this. Cheers!

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