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 not too sweet, roasty but not heavy handed. Smooth on tap

👃 Caramel, cane sugar.. little boozy 👅 Soft mouthfeel; butterscotch, peated; strong burned caramel taste, tart on the palate.

J'avais sous noté cette bière la première fois, elle est vraiment superbe! J'ai l'impression d'aller à la cueillette aux champignons en la buvant 🍄😋

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

Jävla fin grillöl. Fina smaker av bourbonfat. Maltig och söt. Karamellig och torkade frukter.

Good name for celebrating a won at 'boro. Strong and sweet and definitely a touch of barley wine about this. Barrel ageing not overwhelming but a warming and vanilla finish.
