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.

Enough sweetness to contract the dark beer taste. Wonderful.

Strong vanilla notes up front. Strong abv is smoothed over by the barrel notes. No noticeable smokiness, but overall delicious.

From 12/20. Perfectly great. In solemn memory of all who sacrificed everything. May we not forget what they fought and died for.

Beautiful. Light brown/amber pour, gentle fizz. Slightly floral, with hints of vanilla orbiting a caramel nose. It has a boozy leg to it, but not overwhelming. Big, mouth-filling flavor is well-balanced with roasty notes & a faint smokey finish.

Have not had a good BBA beer in a while and this one hits the spot! Rich, boozy, and gets me excited about the winter warmer.
