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.

smokey peat, oak, vanilla, coffee, Islay floral notes; barley, toasty malt and a shortbread finish.

It is good. I'm not sure how to describe it. Pretty unique. Nothing crazy tho.

Back of the fridge... This one may have sat too long-- not the usual stellar taste and a lot of sediment stuck to the bottom.

Чуть-чуть аромата сырой воды и шоколадки | вкус ириски, шоколада молочного, чуть-чуть горечи | в целом не плохо, но что-то подсказывает, что он не самый свежий |

A good one to have as your first beer. It can be disappointing after a stout or other barrel aged beer.

Very nice! Not exactly my cup of tea, but it has a very smooth feeling in your mouth. A bit too sweet for me, but I enjoyed that I could pick up on the flavors well (being new to beer it’s a challenge for me!) but overall a good one!

Synes den mangler lidt sødme. Havde Forventet lidt mere. Måske lidt varmere næste gang.

Grumset lys kastanie i farven. Tydelig duft af bourbonfad der går igen i smagen. Desværre er det så også den eneste smagsnote der er. Heldigvis kan jeg godt lide bourbon smag.
