I believe it is the lager yeast in this one that sets me on fire. I am so used to ales, but this one knocked me on my backside. Filled with flavor, this would be a nice offering year-round. Seems to age well in the fridge, I'll buy a little more next year.

My only complaint is that it sells out too fast. They need to increase their production. The best part of fall.

Lagers are often so bland and predictable, but here is a refreshing alternative. Spicy, malty, dark and luscious Bob's 47 sets new standards for the breed. Lasting head, dark copper tone, sweet smooth mellow malt and a kiss of hops make this brew number one on the charts. Hats of to Boulevard and this fine tribute beer. May Bob Werkowitch rest in peace.

Nice caramel color. Nose very malty, a bit sweet. Huge malty flavor, nice caramel tones, nice hit of bitterness at the end, sort of a faint Cascade-esque citrus bite to it. Quite creamy. Really, really good stuff.

This seasonal beer is made in very short supply, so if you like it--I suggest you load up when it becomes available in mid September! This is my favorite Bouelvard beer, and one of my favorites overall. It’s got a strong punch right off the bat, and by the time you’re figuring out whether or not you either "like" or "really like" the beer, you look down to see your pint glass empty! Exceptional drinkability and the high alcohol percentage is ceratinly felt, but never tasted. After 3 of these beers, you’ll be converted; with each one surprisingly better than the last. Great, great Fall/Winter beer.

Malty, nutty, sweet, a bit of caramel and some well-balance bitterness. This is a true KC tradition and a beer not to be missed. There’s a reason it gets so hard to find. Complex, but so familiar. We salute you, Bob!

This has to be one of the best of the fine beverages that Boulevard produces. I hope this is not one of their seasonal beers. The taste was not to bitter, and not to sweet.
