Founders Backwoods Bastard (10.2) ABV

Big and delicious for your ‘perty mouth. 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 cherries. It’s a kick-back sipper made to excite the pallet.

Not for the faint of heart. Delicious bourbon aged beer. One of my favorites.

incredible, hints of chocolate, sweet, but very good... can't drink more the 1 or 2

Pours a deep red with a small light brown head. The smell is full of smoke with touches of caramel, roasted malts and bourbon barrel oakiness. The flavor is complex, with dark cherries at the front. Silky and smooth and definitely a sipper. A world class ale!

Has an aroma that can only be described as musty wood, but the bourbon comes through in the taste.

#2 from the Don Pepe Deli Beer Stand tasting. Not the beer to be drinking hobo-style on the commute home, but what the hell... RB - 99, can easily fall for the bourbon barrel beers... My fist since A Stone from 2006

Tasty - on the heavy side but worth it

I had this at a Founder's event. It was very different from everything else they had. It had a nice caramel flavor to it.
