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.

It is heavy and sweet. I get a maple and brown sugar back note. wouldn't consider this too boozy.

Vanilj, mörk frukt och bourbonfat i doften. Lätt vinös smak men mestadels bourbonfat. Har hintar av mörk frukt och choklad. Torr munkänsla och hyfsat lätt kropp.

Definitely drinks like every bit of that 11% ABV. Thicc caramelly malts and barrel-aging definitely make themselves known. Has the body of its content, but not the burn.

This one has some depth, if not a lot of complexity. A very good sipping beer.

Damn. Bought a 4 pack of this yesterday. Can’t believe it still holds up. Super solid scotch ale and these days will put me on my ass after 1 bottle.
