Boscos in Little Rock is a haven in a state not known for its beer. Several regular beers are always available along with rotating seasonals. The Hefeweizen took the gold medal in the 2007 GABF, one of two golds won this year by Little Rock brewers. Th beers are aways well-kept and the food has been excellent when we've been here. Service is attentive and professional. They tap a cask beer each Friday at 6:30, and it's worth being here for it.

I visited Boscos while teaching recently in Little Rock. I tried the sampler and then a full pint of their Isle of Skye Scottish Ale. IAs I was not expecting to find much in the way of beer joint in Little rock I was very pleaseantly surprised. The Sampler was very good and the Scottish Ale was excellent. The food and service were also very good. If you ever get to Lottle Rock swing by and check this place out.

I visited here about two weeks ago. As usual it was very busy but I sat at the bar. Service overall was good as I got my beers and meal in good order. The crawfish cakes were very good. Beers: XXX-moderate bittering with little malt overtones. A good American Pale Ale

IPA-moderate head, light body, with medium hops. Smooth drinking beer.

Wee heavy-Coca Cola coloring with light head. Malty but served too cold. Turns in about 8.5%.

Batlic porter-black color, median head. Served too cold but warms up nicely. Best beer on the menu and comes in around 10%.

Overall a nice place for dinner and beers.

Every FRI, 6:30 pm, one cask of conditioned ale is opened. On 27 OCT 2006, it was IPA. Rating of 8/10, where 10 is best. Some other of their beers brewed in-house (10 on-tap): Bombay IPA 7/10; Scottish ale 7/10; River Rail Red (pale ale) 7/10; Capital City Cream ale 7/10. Great pork chops, pizza, salad, soup, and service.

I visted this brewpub on 10/21/06 and had the following brews Famous Flaming Stone Beer, Bombay IPA, Downtown Brown, Isle of Skye Scottish Ale, London Porter, River Rail Red, Oktoberfest, & Capital City Cream Ale. Chuck Skypeck is the brew master. Boscos has a good selection of brews, but they are just uninterestingly made. The sampler round was $8 which I thought was a bit steep. They no longer offer cask brews because a "lot of beer was going to waste". It would seem that their normal clientel is not ready for craft brews. There menu has a variety of "gourmet foods" but all they offer in the way of mustard is the cheap yellow variety. How about a dijon or a natural grain mustard? I guess this chain is more interested in their food than their brews. Its too bad because they have a great potential.

Not sure why this place doesn't rate higher than it does. We enjoyed everything about it. The food is outstanding, and the service was excellent. The beers: Flaming Stone was softer than I expected with a nice touch of caramel sweetness, River Rail Red was a rare APA in which the floral quality of the hops was stronger than their bitterness, Downtown Brown was excellent with a nutty-creamy mouthfeel and flavor, London Porter was rich with alcohol and chocolate notes, Isle of Skye was truly outstanding -- I would have taken some home if I hadn't been catching a flight.

The brown ale was very tasty. Wood fired pizza brought raves from my fellow travler. Quite a busy place on a tuesday evening, seemed like all the trendy people were there. Upscale menu that can be quite expensive (28.00 for a steak) Not often do you find a place with a cask conditioned ale.

Sorry I had my notes mixed. Since I had visited the Nashville location the day after Little Rock, which I visited on 11/20/04. Available in Little Rock were Famous Flaming Stone, Bombay IPA, Downtown Brown, Isle of Skye, London Porter, River Rail Red, Oatmeal Stout and ESB. They only serve the Cask beers on weekdays.

I visited this brewpub on 11/21/04 and had the following; Famous Flaming Stone, Bombay IPA, Germantown Alt, Isle of Skye, London Porter, Stock Ale, Oatmeal Stout, & Glacial Pale Ale. I have found a consistency with the brews served at all 3 Boscos. All were good but nothing was really outstanding. The location is in walking distance of Clinton's Presidential Library and gift shop. Park at one and visit them both.
