Commercial Description:
Boulevard Dry Stout is velvety black and perfectly opaque, and topped by a thick, creamy head. This very drinkable, delicate beer is a delightful harmony of smoky roasted flavors with a silky smooth finish. Now available in bottles.

One of the lighter colored stouts I have tried. Fairly flat flavor profile. Bitter. Roast coffee, malt. Not much of a flavor left afterwards. Not much to distinguish it from anything.

Bottle at home from sample 12 pack on December 4, 2008. Nice light brown head. Thick, dark brown -nearly- black color with an orange hue. Dry stout aroma with a hint of sweetness. Flavor is a little oaky with a sweet, hoppy undertone. A little sweetness hits the tip of the tongue after the drink goes down, leaving no other unique or distinguishable finish. Very decent.

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.

12 oz bottle courtesy of a Drnk_McDermott trade. One of the remaining Boulevard brews I have not rated yet. Pours a fairly black hue with brownish red around the edges. Not quite opaque. A decent brown coca cola head that is big enough, but dissipates quickly. Small lacing throughout consumption. Aromas are largely dark roasted malt and burnt coffee. A bit overdone. Taste is similar, with burnt coffee, roasted malts, and touches of bittersweet chocolate found hiding inside. Finishes bitter, but pretty good. A decent experience, but I’d prefer a Guinness.. and I don’t say that a lot.
