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. Itโ€™s a kick-back sipper made to excite the palate. Distribution Note: Now available year-round beginning April of 2018.

Best paired with meatloaf. (This may be a drunken opinion based on tonight's dinner.)

Big bourbon nose - malt whiskey, treacle comes through - smooth for a heavy hitter

Creamy texture. A more subtle caramel flavor. Bigger hoppy finish. Some sweet woody notes at the end.

Caramel, scotch whiskey and a wee hint of bourbon barrel. Tastes better as it warms ๐Ÿป

The finish will improve with age, I think. Nice berries in the nose. Malty.

Pours up crystal clear ruby red with a big tan head. Dark fruit aroma with a hint of bourbon. Medium body and medium low bitterness. Strong malt and oak flavours blend out into a smooth boozy finish.

Not what I expected, but I'm a good way! It only says ale on the label, but it's definitely heavier in style. VERY rich in flavor, maybe even a little TOO strong.
