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.

An American made Scottish Ale served in an Old Glory glass. Because… ‘Merica! Great whiskey nose & palate: an outstanding beer. Same rating.

Surprised that I have not posted this beer before. Aged in oak bourbon barrels. Gives a great smooth taste.
