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.

A big beer to go along with prepping to make a slightly lesser big beer. Big bourbon and malt flavor, but also highly drinkable. 👍👍👍

Thought I was reaching for a Doom beer but pulled out this Bastard… most likely my teams are doomed in this tourney… and my dog must think I’m a bastard for not sharing my brewski! 🍻

F'ing NHL clearly wants FLA to win this series. Punch to the jaw (63), holding (94), cross-checking (73). Apparently all okay if you play for FLA...
