Backwoods Bastard is one of my very favorite beers ever. French Toast Bastard ... was not. Tastes like drinking maple syrup French toast, so success there I guess. Not for me.

Bottle Shop Series Highball Drifter Mowder
Sweeter and thinner than a brown ale, this sips more like a Belgian Dubbel or quad. Excellent flavor, not too sweet, and only subtle hints of cherry. Its not a Manhattan in a bottle, but it's good.

Coffee notes really pull this together and prevent it being too sweet. Among Founder's imperial brown ales I personally prefer Underground Mountain Brown, but this is a great alternative that runs sweeter and more velvety.

KBS Maple Mackinac Fudge Mowder
Strong, sweet and syrupy without being overpowering in any of them. I don't get a strong maple flavor but the fudge and coffee come through well. A solid, if sweeter, alternative to regular KBS.

A powerful stout, tremendous chocolate and coffee flavor, slightly sweet and a little smoky. This is one terrific beer.

Curmudgeon's Better Half Mowder
A smooth ale but a bit too syrupy sweet for me. (Logical sense it's brewed with molasses and aged in maple syrup barrels.) Has a little bite of bitterness on the end but it's not enough to cut the warm sugaryness.

Pours light and golden. The coffee flavor is sweet, not strong, and it has a creaminess that reminds me of a cream soda (but coffee flavored). Ultimately it goes a little too sweet for me, particularly if I'm wanting a coffee style stout.
