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.

Gevaarlijk zacht, met een prettige aanwezigheid van bourbon-vanilletonen.

I taste some booze, some sweet, not the 20 flavors they say…but it’s a quality beer no doubt. Smooth sipper.

Founders means quality. One of their best. Not distinctive aroma. Dark red color. Medium body. Sweet, biscuit, butter, bourbon, malts. Perfect mouthcoating. Sweet bourbon after.

Beige foam op een kastanjebruin bier. Whisky, salmiak, hout geur. Zacht bittere start, vanille, karamel, melkchocolade, bourbon, hout, rookachtig, spoortje zoethout, iets bittere nadronk. Lekker, lijkt op barley wine.

Getting less complexity in this batch. Not as much Carmel butterscotch notes. A little more bitter

So good considering the price. Great balance of sweetness. Slight barrel presence. A bit non descriptive but not in a bad way since I love barleywines/old ales/stock ales.
