Description
Old Bust Head Brewing Company is an independent, solar-powered microbrewery in Fauquier County, VA west of DC. 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. Familiar faces behind the bar share their love of craft in our 1950’s post & beam taproom while covered outdoor seating between our taproom and production area provides a welcoming environment for leashed dogs and all-weather access to a rotating variety of food trucks.

12 ounce bottle from Cork & Fork, Gainesville, opened 6/5/14. Pours a clear amber color with a large creamy tan head. Good head retention. Aroma of spicy, herbal, earthy hops, raw malt and a bit of caramel. The taste is bitter earthy, pine hops, a bit of resin. Caramel malt and a bit of raw malt. Medium bodied, moderate carbonation, moderate lingering bitterness, decent balance, quite drinkable.
