Our experience brewing traditional ales & lagers has helped us win awards in styles classic and creative. With beautiful views of slate roofed barns and refurbished campus-like brick buildings, Old Bust Head is part of a unique farm called ‘Vint Hill’ that for 50 years operated as a top secret military listening post.

Somewhere in Virginia: pours a bronze amber color with an off white head. Aroma is citrus with a good bit of pine and some other fruitiness. Did not really see this as being too good kf an example of what a west coast IPA is. Not bad though.
