| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | May 19, 2009 The original! The flagship!
A tasty, tasty session beer with a great hop kick. When pairing with food, make sure it’s original kansas city barbecue... preferably from Arthur Bryants or Jackstack. Stands up to the spice and really encourages you to drink it all day. This used to be my go-to Boulevard beer for session drinking, but now that their Single Wide IPA is out... we have a contender. jcwattsrugger (5333), Florida and, New Jersey, USA

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | May 18, 2009 Bottle: Light golden pour with a moderate sand colored head. Smells of citrus hops and caramel, rather sweet. Flavor is malty and even a bit bready, with some modest dry florals. A little citrus and caramel. I’d think this would make a nice house beer.

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | May 14, 2009 Aroma- Bready/biscuit-like, some berry esters, medium herbal hoppiness.
Appearance- Good clarity, head is off white and not real creamy. Dark gold color.
Flavor- Herbal hoppiness exists immediately and lasts throughout, without ending in intense bitterness. Biscuit maltiness provides a nice backbone. I’m guessing either victory or biscuit malt was used. Great flavor!
Palate- smooth, with body that is surprisingly full for Boulevard! The bitteness dries it out a little, but overwhelmingly.
Overall- Nice offering from Boulevard. It’s got a great, full body and the flavor is complex enough to turn this session beer into a "sit-back and sip-er".
