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.

Cleaning and listening to old vinyl. Beatles, Manhattan Transfer, now Bobbie Gentry and Ode to Billie Joe. This calls for Backwoods Bastard!

Hé dat ben ik! Iets meer viscositeit had gekund, maar deze is smooth. Voorin veel vanille en zoetigheid, dan kickt de bourbon en hout in gevolgd door een wat bittere afdronk. Lekker van nippen.

Nose is sweet with a little heat. Smooth rich and creamy with a nice boozy scotch hit. Night cap.

Peter Roman

Tons of vanilla on the nose, oak. Clearly barrel aged. Great dark red color. Very strong whiskey presence. Vanilla is soft, some wood, long finish. Outstanding beer. For 11%, the high alcohol content is masked nicely. Fantastic

Que finas son estas founders. Bourbon y caramelo en aroma, muy poco cuerpo para 11 grados y nada de sensación alcoholica. Entra fina y elegante, quizá al final cae un poco de sabor, pero en su precio pocas se acercan a esta calidad. Muy buena
