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.

Draft. Amber tending toward red with haze. Nice light tan head that left good lacing. nose is fruit, hops, and citurs. Kind of a roasted malt flavor with interesting hops to make a good taking brew. Mouthfeel was above average. A well crafted Irish Ale with good balance that is a pleasure to drink.

Pretty good, dinkable at the very least. Has some sweet rich maltiness, full of caramel and some light fruit flavors as well. Finishes slightly spicy, with some toasty burnt bread notes.

A dark slightly hazy amber beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is sweet with quite a lot of fruit and hops combined with light notes of caramel. The flavor is sweet with notes of fruit, caramel, and light notes of alcohol, leading to a very dry bitter end.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Clear orangey brown with a small, beige coloured head. Aroma of caramel and roasted malt. Medium-bodied with sweetish, roasted malts and a discreet note of smoke. Sweetness and a dry hoppiness blends together perfectly to create a very harmonious brew. A lot closer to a Scottish Ale than to Kilkenny. Lovely. 250606

Bottle. Poured reddish brown with a huge frothy off-white head that lasted and produced good lacing. Moderate toasted sweet malt aroma. Medium body with a smooth texture and soft carbonation. Medium sweet bitter flavor with a sweet finish of moderate duration. This beer would go well with spicy food or a cigar.

The 12 ounce bottle poured a slightly hazy reddish amber colored beverage with a medium sized cream colored fizzy head that lasted fairly well and left good lacing on the glass. The balance leaned slightly toward the hops side with a sweet floral hop aroma. Behind this the malt made itself known in the form of notes of roasted grains, hints of caramel and toast. The body was medium-full with lively carbonation and a sharp, dry texture. The flavor started off a bit sweet which quickly changed to a nicely balanced bitterness. This bitterness lasted throughout the medium-long finish and was accompanied by an alcohol warmth toward the end.

Poured red with good head and some lacing. Not much in the way of aroma. Taste was a weak irish red.

Deep Amber in color with a frothy creamy like head. Caramel sweetness evident in the nose with slight fruitiness from esters. Caramel sweetness is evedent in flavor with a lowbitterness to balance. Toasted flavors come through in the back of the beer at the finish. Light creaminess and maderate carbonation give this beer a very nice mouthfeel. Over all a very drinkable beer.
