More stone bite. A dense off white head on a deep mahogany body. Nose is dank hops, citrus and brown sugar. A nice biting hop profile leads the way. Pineapple, lemon, pine resin, grapefruit and grass hops don’t let you off easy. Biscuity malt, caramel and honey take a clear second bill to the bitterness. Nice carbonation, and a solid mid density body add to a slick mouth feel. Oh, stop it, Stone people.

Man, trying to find this one to rate it without comprehending the intentional misspelling is v. difficult.
Draught (as lucky bastard, not basartd, hence the issue). Poured reddish brownish, strong hops aroma, pretty decent, mild alco burn. Ok.

A sublime blend of sticky oily high alpha hoppy goodness. Loads of citrus, some nice woody, almost vanilla flavors from the oaked bastard. Some nice bready sweet malts. Really an incredible beer and incredibly easy drinking.

This is really good. I was surprised by how the flavors played well together. Excellent.

Bomber. Piny, caramel, big nose. Glowing red-brown. Sweet caramel and pine, rich malt, full body. Just another in the long list of Bastards that are pretty much all the same. Not bad.

Probably too old for rating, but hey, it’s still on the shelf at the beer store, so fair game, right? Smells good, tons of Bastard malt with a strong herbal hop presence, and the pour’s sexy enough. Tastes kind of muddled,though, like none of the various Bastard iterations present want to take the prominent role you want. Kind of a why bother beer, to be honest. I mean, Oaked Bastard’s the shit, so why dilute it with its brethren? Still tasty though, with the massive bitter back end of AB coming through while the sweet-bun caramel heft of Double Bastard thickens up the middle. Oak never really plays a part, unfortunately, and as a whole the beer kinda seems more gimmicky than great.
