Dirty Bastard

Scotch Ale / Wee Heavy

So good it’s almost wrong. Dark ruby in color and brewed with seven varieties of imported malts. Complex in finish, with hints of smoke and peat, paired with a malty richness and a right hook of hop power to give it the bad attitude that a beer named Dirty Bastard has to live up to. Ain’t for the wee lads.

Game Night! I love Founders, and I love this style! Dark brown pour. Rich full aroma. Opens sweet, warm, biscuity and full of caramel and stone fruits! This is an amazing brew, and easily the best Wee Heavy I’ve had! Beware the 8.5% and we’ll hidden ABV🙃

This one was brewed in 2015. It's become even more smooth than 8 years ago. Full of tasted that lasts, a real Scots ale in style.

Never really tried scotch ales before but if this is how they are, I can definitely dig it.

Found a sixer of original labels and had to grab it. Not buying any with the new label. Bring back the bastard.

I believe they've changed the label from the old one I remember and the taste has also improved. A nice little 8.5% ABV give this Scotch style ale something to appreciate on top of the taste. Smooth, malty, and not particularly sweet. 6 pack, nice price
