3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Pours copper into the glass with a small white head. Aroma is sweet caramel malt with a pretty small amount of hop fragrance. Flavor is a nice balance between caramel sweetness combined with a bitterness that seems to ride on the bubbles of this bottle conditioned beer. I really like this beer but have a hard time accepting it in the style of APA. Seems much more like an English Pale to me

12 oz. bottle. Poured gold. Biscuity with sweet caramel flavor. Needs more hop presence. Meh.

I have to admit my last bottle of this was 2years old, but still tasty. I am hoping to get my hands on some more for my camping trip soon. The flavor is right there for me on this one...

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.
