Pours very dark brown/black in color. No head forming on the pour. Smell is roasted black malts and some slight coffee. Taste is a bit more astringent coffee. Some more roasted malt, but not much else going on. A little bitter and astringent on the mouthfeel. Smooth and a bit thin. Decent, but I much prefer their Bully Porter over all the others.

Bottle courtesy of mreusch. Pours brown with a thin white/off-white head. Smells of earth, sweet malt, some citrus. Tastes of caramel, earth, tea, light spice.

Nothing fancy. Basic stout on par with Schlafly’s Irish Stout. Bit dark and creamy, but won’t excite you too much.

12 oz. bottle - thanks to brewczar for the trade; thin, cola brown with tan head quickly fading; fresh, soapy and nutty aromas; dry, charcoal like flavors; surprising that their bully porter is so good but this is pretty poor; oh well, boulevard still rocks in my book

Black in color with cranberry highlights. Anemic, light-brown head is completely diminishing. Lightly roasty aroma, some subtle hints of smoke and toffee malts. Upon taking my first sip, initial impression is that this is overly carbonated for a stout, distractingly so. Flavor is more roasty than the aroma would make you think, bordering on some burnt wood notes, with a little black licorice and subtle caramel. Nothing really redeeming about this particular Boulevard offering.
