Feb 9, 2009 Tap at The Counter in Palo Alto. Pretty average for the style. Deep dark brown color with a small tan head. Sweet malt dominates the aroma, some roastiness. Flavor is really malty with caramel and a little smoke. Pretty average palate for the style - medium-to-full body.

Feb 6, 2009 Condensed review:
-----
Appearance. Full Boar has a deep dark amber color with a tan-colored head remained which didn’t last long.
-----
Smell. This beer has a very dark malty aroma with a nice strong roasty sensation.
-----
Taste. Full Boar has a warm roasted flavor and with a hint of toasted malts. It is very malty and slightly sweetFull Boar has a great Scotch ale taste.
-----
Mouthfeel. A creamy sensation from the carbonation manifests nicely as a medium-bodied beer that is full of flavor.
-----
Drinkability. This is a pleasant and easy to drink scotch ale that gives you a nice warm feeling on a chilly evening.

Oct 31, 2008 draft at the brewery. dark amber brown pour with thick light brown head. aroma is mostly sweet and sugary malt, but there is some earthy/bready presence as well. flavor is the same, lotta sweet caramel, but palate and finish both seem a little off.

Mar 28, 2008 Draught at the Cypress in Santa Cruz. Dark brown with a small tan head that laces. Caramel, peat, smoke aroma. Chocolate malty flavor with earthy, herbal hop balance and a decent smoke element. Pretty rich, but not cloying, and the mouth-feel is clean and smooth. Pretty nice. Not sure what the strength was, but packed plenty of good flavors.
