Located on Harbor Blvd. in Fullerton, the Olde Ship certainly isn’t found on a backroad, nor can Harbor Blvd. be designated as a blue highway, although maybe many years ago. What I don’t understand when looking at a map is the way its been designated as north or south…pull up a map and follow it from Imperial Hwy (90) all the way down to its end in Costa Mesa, south of the 405. How many times is it listed as south\u2014north\u2014south\u2014north, no south %#$@!!. Good place to start would be the Olde Ship (709 N. Harbor Blvd.) if you were looking for an address that ended with S. Harbor Blvd. Granted Harbor Blvd. travels along some easily recognizable venues such as Disneyland and the Convention Center, but\u00a0608 and 3589 South Harbor Boulevard are 9 miles apart and you travel along N Harbor between the two.<\/p>\n

Enough cartography, let’s move on to geography and more specifically the ales, bitters, lagers served at the Olde Ship. If your experience with grog from across the pond has been limited to Guinness, Harp, Bass or Newcastle, spend some time in the Olde Ship. Boddingtons may be a familiar tap but how about Smithwicks, Old Speckled Hen, or Blackthorn Cider? There’s also the Fullers (London Pride, ESB and\u00a0London Porter).<\/p>\n

So my suggestion\u2014 if ever your asked to go meet someone on South Harbor Blvd., stop in at 709 N. Harbor Blvd. and order up a pint or two. Pull out your cellphone and study Google Maps, study the beer list and have them meet you at the Olde Ship.<\/p>\n
