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.

Well this is really good when you don’t leave 5 years in the basement! Sweet and a bit boozy with notes of toffee, peat, oak and a hit of bourbon.

From the cellar — delicious and rich, complex spice with caramel, vanilla, molasses, and plenty bourbon notes.

Strong, warming, and complex. Very nice Wee Heavy. Excellently brewed beer. I feel fortunate to have found one here in Houston.

Stevig in smaak. Bourbon op de achtergrond niet te aanwezig. Had hem iets ronder verwacht voor Founders.

It's been awhile but it never hurts to check in a classic. Smoky BA scotch ale goodness in a bottle. I love this beer

Bottled 27.01.2021, Liquid vanilla fudge with the most intense bourbon notes! Wouldn't know it was 11%, super smooth.
