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.

Oh, so tasty. Oak bourbon barrel aged beers are so much my jawn, and this one might be my #2 after Curieux. The aroma of single malt scotch is intriguing, and the beer provides that slight hint of spiciness one would expect because of it.

Enjoyable. Strong but not heavy. Sweet but with a small bite.

Had to take a picture since I have the glass... Barrel ageing really adds sweetness to the Dirty Bastard.

Definitely a slow-sipper. First impression is "very sweet"! After-taste is more complex, malty, bourbony... I think the taste description on the bottle is v accurate!
