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.

Thoh, wat een aroma... Whisky, hout, chocoladesaus. Thoh, wat een smaak... thoh. Zo zacht, zoveel bourbon, zo'n rijkelijke smaken. Top.

My first ever Scottish Ale. Not too back. A little thin for a stout guy but the combined flavor of a sing malt scotch & bourbon barrel aging saved the day
