Boulevard Dry Stout

beer pours an impenetrable jet-black with a tan head that doesn’t retain well and leaves average lace. sharply roasty nose has an almost esprosso character with perhaps a hint of smokiness. flavor starts with an almost acrid coffee roastiness, but mellows a bit, allowing for some softer chocolate notes to come out. while this is a roasty beer, it doesn’t have the kick one should expect from a dry stout. almost too malty (relative to the style). still, a decent if fairly simple drinking stout.

Pours black with medium tan head which dissapates quickly. Aroma is roasted malt some coffee tones. Flavor is straight roasted malt almost expresso-ee. Smooth though a little to carbonated. Finishes quite dry. overall ok dry stout that is thirst quenching.

Pours a deep dark brown, with a very small tan head. Dark wheat aroma, with some roasted coffee and chocolate, flavor has lots of caramel with just a bit of acrid smokiness, dry finish like an ashtray. Kind of a boring stout.

Dark brown, nearly no head at all. Some roasty-caramel-malted aroma - very mild and not very striking or unique. It is very dry indeed! Almost ashy with dryness. Somewhat bitter, not-so-smooth finish.

Bottle from santa - smokey, roasty aroma, with background chocolate malt - fairly dry, with a hard water and mineral quality that makes it seem pretty authentic - bitter espresso and a hint of creamy sweetness beneath the otherwise overall dry character - pretty decent.

Bottle. Poured dark brown color with a large frothy brown head that diminished slowly with good lacing. Moderate smoky roasted malt aroma. Medium body with smooth dry texture. Medium roasted bitter flavor with a light sweet finish of average duration. Solid drinkable brew.

A hazy deep red-brown beer with a lazing brown head. The aroma is sweet with primary notes of berries. The flavor is only slightly roasted combined with a light note of berries, and the body is thin. I find it boring, would like more power in the flavor.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Beautiful, clear dark red mahogany with a small, off-white head. Aroma of hard roasted malt. Rather light-bodied with a high carbonation - too fizzy actually. Burned, malty accents with a rather light, bitter finish. Not really an impressive effort. 200606
