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.

Hammer! Sehr fein. Caramel, Trockenfrüchte und leichte Alkoholnoten in der Nase. Samtig weiches Mundgefühl. Feine Whiskyaromen. Gehaltvoller Abgang. Ich liebe es!

Mahogany color with a slight deep red tint. Smells of bourbon barrel, booze, and stone fruit. Taste follows the nose with a lightly bitter finish and a warming sensation that follows. Medium to heavy bodied with light carbonation. Excellent scotch ale.

Clean. Dark amber color. Rolls from sweet to Ale flavor. So malty. Strong finish.

Too gross outside to mow, so this is a vacuum beer instead.
