Backwoods Bastard

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. Distribution Note: Now available year-round beginning April of 2018.

This unfortunately goes on my very short but necessary DO NOT DRINK list. It’s horrible. Best described as a poor mix of wine and a bad ipa. I considered going back to the liquor store and asking for a refund. Truly disappointing.

Wow. Absolutely not. That is wow. Just no. I don’t know what that it or why I would put that into my body.

This is an aging rating. The bottle was given to me about a year ago by a buddy, but not sure how long he was aging it for. Did not hold up well. The smell was off, sediment throughout the entire glass and was chunky. Didnt even bother trying it..

Bitter and chocolate; like the bitterness of Wednesday Addams soul. Slight bourbon at the end

Kompakt, fyllig, len och söt. Säkert jättegod om man tycker om whisky-infused öl. Det gör inte jag… 😵

Contemplating dumping the rest of this down the drain. Can’t believe I paid $4 for such an asinine taste. For such a heralded beer among my peers, my disappointment is immeasurable.

Flavor is just two overpowering to enjoy for me. Definitely a heavy scotch ale, if you like that style.
