Commercial Description:
Boulevard Irish Ale, our springtime seasonal beer, is patterned after red ales that have a rich Irish heritage. Our recipe combines five kinds of malt to provide a complex, toasty flavor and reddish hue. Nugget and English Kent Golding hops are added to enhance the beer’s complexity and to produce a pleasing balance.

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.

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.

Bottled... Poured a medium to dark red color with a medium head. Aroma of sweet malt and caramel. Flavor was sweet malt and a bit of spiciness with a nice hoppy finish. Medium mouthfeel with good carbonation.

Sweet dough and caramell nose, ruddy amber color, low sticky head. Toaste malt, cookie, some raisin in the flavor. Broad tingly gritty bitter. Medium body, OK balance. OK but not that special overall.

Beautiful crimson hue with delicate cream head. Cherries, bready malt and a nuttiness are in the aroma. The nutty flavor comes out more in the body, along with caramel. Suprisingly dry finish.

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.
