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.

Boozy but very tasty. The alcohol helps cut the sweetness of the scotch ale.

I've always picked up on notes of caramel and vanilla with the obvious bourbon and oak in this one. I wish they would try a double rye version. That would be one to remember.
