| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Apr 29, 2005 Pours amber red with a small layer of khaki head. Low-level fruity aroma, with caramel, saltine crackers and a bit of pine. Body is much more lively and sparkly than the carbonation level would indicate. Good dry toastiness in flavor. Simple, but in a clean and drinkable way, not in a boring way. Just a bit of minty hops in the finish. YogiBeera (2437), Hamburg, Germany
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Apr 20, 2005 Nice amber colored brew with a fizzy layer of a head on top. Liveley carbonated. Medium intense malt and caramel nose, slightly sweet. Nice and warming nutty and caramel flavor in waves accompished by a nice light bitter kick in the middle. Thank you so much Csbosox for this beer. Ray1975 (251), Broken Arrow, Oklahoma, USA

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 16/20 | Mar 19, 2005 St. Pat’s Day 2005, Crescent Moon Ale House (Omaha, NE). On tap. Pleasing. Translucent dark red in the glass with quickly diminishing off-white head; great lacing, INCREDIBLE "racing." I sat there playing with the glass for a full minute, just tilting it back and forth. Not much of an aroma besides fresh/crisp pineish hops. The flavor was dope-ish (i.e., almost amazing): subdued sweetness on the fluffy malt transitioned into a great level of bitter hops that lingered long into the finish. Slightly buttery, smooth, well-balanced. Perfect body: was stout enough to hold up the hops, but still felt crisp and light in the mouth without being watery. Well done, Boulevard. Well done.
