Full Sail Old Boardhead 07 22oz:




We were experiencing an unexpected outage of the Old Boardhead but it is back now and I stocked up on a little extra in case it happens again. If you have been trying to order and have been unable to, the problem has been resolved. Sorry for the inconvenience.

As usual Full Sail comes out with another fine vintage of Old Boardhead. Amber/orange in color with a small but tight head. Light fruity hop aroma with whiffs of caramel and cake. Soft and malty up front than moves into the fruity hop flavors and finish quite bitter. At the time of this review the IBUs come shining through in the finish; this will calm down quickly in the next few months and settle into a more rounded finish. At 9% and easy smooth, this barley wine will age for a good 5 years plus and is yummily accessible now.
