On the face of it, this could be a beer that is right up my alley, but there's quite a bit riding on the influence of the chardonnay barrel here. I do like that influence if the final result is grape must, vinous character, and clean edges, but not...
I have loved Tank 7 for many years so I suppose I should give Dank 7 a chance. Not related beers, but here we go. 7 Hops used, apparently. The bright, clouded orange body produces some good head and the lace is sticky and impressive. Seems...
Courtesy of Brian, cheers mate! 12 oz bottle, best before 16 March 2021, 2020 vintage. 16 IBUs, limited release with maple syrup and aged in Templeton rye barrels. Mid-brown pour with a decent head considering the ABV. Of course this fades, but it...
Collab with Boulevard. The usual Ommegang presentation, in a style I am likely to enjoy. Medium pop on opening. Lightly hazed, orange color with a decent white head. Initially not that spicy, but it does build a little. Carbonation is medium to...
Pretty sure the pictured (06/14/23) is the 'same' beer re-branded at 7.4%. Original notes 08/07/14 No. 8 in the Smokestack Series. Love this beer. The kind of beer/style that none in America does better than Boulevard. A really spicy and jacked up...
750 mL bottle in the usual Smokestack series presentation. No. 20 in the series. Re-release of the 2011 Collaboration series No. 2. Batch Number (looks like) RB13254-2 Best By Date 06 2014 Pour is a sweet looking, golden beer with a substantial...
12 oz Jet black, beautifully retained brown head. Some lace. Huge without being heavy. Rich, the beer has a presence that is really noticeable. Smooth with light roast notes and some creamy bitterness. Deep and meaningful. Alcohol both present and...
Always excited to get into a large format Boulevard beer, and the thought of an Imperial Pilsner heightens that a bit. Corked & caged. Wispy head, with zero retention and lace. That's a bit of a disspointment TBH, Pilsner malts on nose. Saaz...
Apparently this beer is brewed to celebrate one Bob Werkowitch, Master Brewer, and his graduation from the US Brewer's Academy in 1947. Nice. Beautiful clarity with a distinctly orange hue, Bob's '47 looks like a classic Oktoberfest in the glass....
More thanks go out to @lnashsig. 2012 vintage, bottle number 20081, Batch 2012-2, Best By: 02-2014. 33% ale, 67% ale aged in rye whiskey barrels. Frankly, I'm not a big fan of either rye or whiskey barrel-aged beer, so things don't look good from...
Additional notes 06/17/23 Since those original notes from 11 years ago I've come to adore this beer. Put simply, it (along with Saison Brett) is one of the great beers brewed in the USA. Original notes 01/21/12 Part of the usually tremendous,...
A beer, which on the one or two other occasions I have drunk it, I enjoyed it so much that I never got around to reviewing. I just didn't want the experience of drinking it to be interrupted by note taking. Boulevard really has made some excellent...
750 mL corked & caged bottle courtesy of PittBeerGirl as part of Secret Bunny 2010. Batch number 2009-1, bottle 00220 out of 11925. I loosened the cage on the bottle, turned around to get a glass of water and 30 seconds later the cork flew out...
750 mL corked and caged affair courtesy of thirdeye11 - thanks Chad. Pop on opening is encouraging with a good amount of gun smoke. Proper carbonation in these beers is vital to their success. Pour gives a fairly standard (but good looking)...
750 mL corked & caged bottle with the Batch #68100. (Pictured in the smaller format in 2016) Pretty BIG pop on opening with some gun smoke. Poured in several stages into the Terrapin 22 oz snifter. Body is a dark orange, murky color with a...
Thanks go out to stopbarking for the chance to crack this, 750 mL corked and caged, champagne style, dimple bottomed bottle. Batch D8240. VERY complicated beer for me to review. I'm really not at all sure where I stand on this one but here goes......
12oz stubbie bottle - a single. Pretty sure that this was left over from the CEO/Old Farts BIF, thanks to Vancer. Black body with some orange highlights deep in the sampling glass. Head is gone quickly to reveal little or no lace. Nose is promising...
Thanks go out to Vancer as part of CEO/OLD Farts BIF. 12oz single in the typical Boulevard stubbie bottle. Hazy orange body with a distinct honey/orange hue. Large initial head with some serious fizzy carbonation. No lace and the head is gone...
12 oz single from a recent trade from Vancer and the CEO/Old Farts BIF, thanks! Pale orange pour with some head and lace but both fade very quickly. Slightly sweet, with a mild bitterness in the finish, but this is bland in the extreme. Lacks much...
12oz stubbie bottle. I'm drinking this a few weeks after the best before date - I doubt that it will matter much. Thanks go out to Vancer as part of CEO/Old Farts BIF. Disappointing pour. The beer has the appearance of a Belgian Dubbel or perhaps...
Best before 01/16/06. Highly carbonated pour leads to a dark brown body and a airy and bubbly head that leaves some lacing. Sweet and malty aroma that promises much. Surprisingly the taste does not really reflect the aroma. The initial tastes are...
