Founders Backwoods Bastard is a bourbon barrel-aged Scotch ale from Founders Brewing Company, packaged as a four-pack of 12 oz bottles at 11% ABV. It is brewed with Abbey and Crystal malts and hopped with Nugget and Willamette, then aged in oak bourbon barrels 85 feet underground in Grand Rapids' historic gypsum mines. Founders Brewing Company was established in 1997 in Grand Rapids, Michigan. On the nose there is deep caramelized malt, toffee, dried fig and dark berry fruit, with peaty smoke, toasted oak and vanilla. The palate brings vanilla and honey sweetness, brown sugar, candied fruit, toffee, milk chocolate, bourbon, coconut and baking spice. The finish is long and warming, with smoke, dark caramel, a slightly bitter hop note, oak tannins and gentle heat.
