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.

One of the best beers there is! Another beer I wish was brewed/available longer, but it is always a special treat for the spring. Nice color, pleasant odor, and it is one of the tastiest ales you’ll have.

Nice Ale! Red and hearty and good for most everything that ails you. A good take on a traditional Irish Red. This Red tops Leinie’s and Killigan’s... by a long shot.

Courtesy of MJames, couldn’t get this in my home town. Came via Oklahoma. Big head out of the bottle. Eggshell, lacing. Citrusy, hoppy and smooth. Definite warming effect while consuming. Very Nice beer.

Blvd Brewing creates a very good spring ale with a nose of Saaz hops and Pale Malt. The head is not lasting, but in the bottle a quick flick of the wrist produces a solid 1+ inch head. The color is right for the style and it is medium to light bodied beer.

Exceptional bottle-conditioned ale. Most so-called Irish Ales are usually middle of the road red ales, but this is very nice. The color is a nice red-amber, with a firm head and excellent lacing. Aroma is caramel, with some herbal hops and a tinge of smokiness. The flavor is perfectly balanced: caramel malt and Englishy hops, plus a slight smokiness. Creamy mouthfeel. Very very drinkable and characterful.

2002 version: Absolutely wonderful. IMO the best offering from this marvelous brewery. Excellent malt flavor, beautiful appearance and appreciable head. The only things I see need improvement are the lack of aroma and the fact that this is seasonal.

2003:It's Boulevard, so it's good, as always. Pours a copper/gold color, smells hoppy and yeasty. Fairly decent head, good lacing. Ceamy mouthfeel. Flavor moves from initial hop "snap", to a moment of dryness, to a mellow finish. Very nice. 2004: Seems a little better than last year's. Pours a deep red color, low carbonation, small head, a little lacing. smells malty and yeasty. Flavor is of great caramel malts, mild dryness, sweet malty ending, some lemongrass in there towards the end. Good stuff, yet again.
