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.

Strong and sweet. Raisin and dark fruits. Hint of booze. Better as it warms to about 50f

Ironically this brew was bought at Jungle Jim's in Cincinnati after the day before being in Grand Rapids MI. This brew presents with a sweet malty bourbon and chocolate flavor profile. While high ABV there is zero alcohol byproduct.

WOW idk what I was expecting when I bought this beer but it has totally exceeded all my wettest of dreams. Starts out hot and boozy as all hell, then finished like a nice pancake breakfast with notes of maple syrup, lil chocolate, and vanilla.
