Boulevard Double Wide IPA

Brewed by Boulevard Brewing Company
Style: Imperial/Double IPA
Kansas City, Missouri USA

750 ml. bottle. Batch 08303. Pours a thick head of great duration, with extensive lacing, over a slightly cloudy orangy brown body (SRM 10-15)....nose of pine, resin, caramel, pineapple with minimal floral....tastess initially of caramelly malts then the hop build occurs ending in a nicely balanced citrus (grapefruit) bitterness....mouth feel is medium with fairly high carbonation. As noted previously this is something more than an IPA and is quite delicious.

Pour was a pretty cloudy orange color with fluffy head. Aroma was citrus lots of orange in there. Flavor was much the same, bitter hops were there to offset the sweetness of the orange. Solid beer.

Pours a hazy dark bronze, three finger head, excellent retention, average lacing, strange activity in the head, definitely "frothy" as mentioned previously. Citrus, pine nose. Balanced flavor with remarkable complexity. Almost.... almost a DIPA... so close! One of the most delicious IPAs i’ve been lucky enough to try. Boulevard is movin’ on up in the Denver metro area right now - now I know why.

Can’t remember if I scored this via a specific trade or maybe secret santa. Either way thanks! Corked bottle pours a hazy, orange amber, with a frothy, lacing, active white head. Nose was balanced citrus, oranges, lemons, some pine, grapefruit, with a hint of biscuits. Flavor was nice and also well balanced, some fruits, apricots, some light toast, biscuits, a touch of lemon. Finish was lasting bitterness and just a tad sticky. Very nice as a stand alone, but straddles the line between IPa and DIPa.

Pours with a large head (4 fingers). Appearance is light amber with a slight cloudiness. Strong hop aroma with hints of orange rind. This IPA is a little more tart then others in this category. Delicious strong hop bitterness dominates the flavor profile.

Poured from 750ml bottle(batch 08303) into pint glass: Aroma - Piney and citrusy, with a bit of gold malt. Appearance - Deep golden amber in color. Cloudy with a massive, billowy, off-white head that lasts to the last sip and coats the glass all the way to the bottom. Flavor - Somewhat fruity. Notes of orange, grapefruit, lemon followed by apricots and peaches. Next, a nice golden malt flavor and finishes with a piney\citrus aftertaste. Palate - Medium mouthfeel with plenty of natural carbonation. Overall - This is my first double IPA. It’s similar to a British or East Coast IPA doubled. Very malty, but balanced with plenty of tastefully applied hops. I’m from Kansas City so I have a soft spot for Boulevard Brewery, but I can recommend this to anyone wanting to try a well balanced double IPA.

Very hazy amber color with a great off-white head that built one inch over the glass and leaves peaks. Aroma is citrus, malt , floral hops, and pineapple. Taste is thick and complex with pine, licorice, sweet malt, and citrus. Finishes bitter and then some roast with pleasant warmth of alcohol.

750mL bottle. Came recommended to me by my knowledgeable liquor store employee Pours a dark amber/brown color with a finger+ high off-white thick head. Smells of apricot, citrus, caramel malt, and lots of hops. Tastes of citrus, malt, a little hop presence; a little disappointing. Very smooth going down, and not too harsh at all. Overall prettty decent, but nothing spectacular.
