Strong deep copper and bronze coloured body with even a lightish brown glow and tint, all with barely a sliver of a perfectly white head on top. Aroma of deep caramelised sugars and pit fruits with a good bite of grain, earthy malt and some light toffee along with some specialty grains like rye even noticeable. Medium to Full-bodied; Strong rich earthy malt bite shows some of the pit fruit sweetness, but really the malt makes the body quite chewy and the alcohol really to peek through. Aftertaste shows a bit more of a balance between all the pitted fruit and sweetness alongside the deep malts, with a smooth alcohol bite (but still some warmth throughout) and a noticeable floral hop bite at the very end. Overall, a nice and interesting [almost] barley-wine with a deep bite and a strong character, but nice, especially in the setting of a brewpub here in Idaho. Good to sample and recommended, especially if you can find it here when you come in! I sampled this twelve ounce snifter, on draught, at the Snow Eagle Restaurant here in Idaho Falls, Idaho on 03-August-2020 for US$4,50 while eating dinner with my family for my first ever [real] trip to the State of Idaho!

Draft @ the BP, 2015 vintage. Pours a reddish amber color with a thick and creamy finger of tan head. Big aromas of citrus and floral hops, caramel. Tastes rich and vibrant with aged floral and citrus hops, sweet and strong overall. Modest bitters. Lots of malty and citrus sweetness. Some toffee. Really nice beer. Reminds me a lot of some of the earlier vintages of Old Boardhead. Well done.
