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.

Perfect for this night. Was this always barrel aged? This is a wonderfully smooth batch for 11% abv

So what’s the word on Founders these days?have they made amends? Are they still jerks? Are we ‘allowed’ to drink their beers? This is still one of my faves from them.

Lucka 12. Rökig, karmell, lite smörkola. Fantastik. Denna måste jag prova lagra ett par år för en ännu rundare smak. Ganska sträv nu.

Been 5 years since I had this and it still rocks. Bonus: it looks just like black coffee in a clear mug. Perfect for those late afternoon December meetings.
