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.

The sweetness is more of a maple syrup or a brown sugar than a deep caramel for a wee heavy. Great wood notes. An enjoyable winter sipper.

Seems to have a monk fruit aftertaste, I don’t care for monk fruit but otherwise it’s decent. *After nearly finishing the glass, I don’t notice the monk fruit 🤣

Quite boozy with bourbon and caramel flavours and plenty of oak and smoke with a touch of bitterness in the finish.

Nog een toppertje uit het Founders-gamma. Gerijpt op eiken bourbonvaten. Best lekker! Niet te verbazen in een toplocatie als de gebrande winning!

It's more than a wee heavy. It's a middle heavy. Boozy. Sweet. Dates. Bourbon.

Low carbonation, sweet carmelized flavor. Definite bourbon notes.

Not super sweet and a little bit boozy. It’s a boozy Oktoberfest to me. Caramel flavor but very well balanced
