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.

To celebrate the weekend. A favorite Michigan beer seemed appropriate.

As my friends return to school, this dude spent the day in our backwoods cutting, splitting, hauling, stacking fire wood. Cheers! Crush it my education friends!

Just did a side-by-side taste-test, and I think I may've had it slightly off for awhile... Bastard is as good, if not better, than non-Nitro Old Chub. O boy, makes me wonder if Nitro Backwards Bastard is possible !? Here's TAT w/wine n I hopin'...

New bottle, got a few last week. Best before March 24, 2024. So smooth! Bourbon, leather, oak, hazelnut, tobacco, marsipan and toffee. Absolutely fantastic! 😍🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺

#100. Образцовый плотный и выдержанный wee heavy, вкус очень многогранен, тут и кисло-сладкий барбарис, и ириски, и танины, чем-то даже напомнило неплотный barley wine.
