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.

Definitely can taste the liquor in this. But it is still really nice. Two of these and I’ll be buzzed I think. Lol.

Boozy & malty. A definite barleywine feel to it. Won’t seek this out but won’t avoid if offered.

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

Would be interested to try this at another time earlier in the day. Has a subtle booziness to it, but isn't that interesting.
