355ml bottle (Alko Arkadia, Helsinki)
Simple sweet fruity aroma, pretty typical for an American-style Pale Ale. Candy sugary retronasals, again something fruity about it, but also a little earthy, some rusty iron. Otherwise, slightly watery body, and with crisp carbonation. Not much to this, it’s a simple sweet bitter with an acidic bite. A bit dead in the mouth, even though it’s bottle conditioned - probably because it’s too fizzy. I do like the bitter tingle of the hops in the finish though. Could rehydrate on this on a hot day.

My experience with this particular brew is limited, but memorable. I will always order this at a pub if nothing else available is better. Preferred over anything on tap.
4.3 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
Boulevard’s pale is my go to beer, especially in the fall and winter. It’s very smooth and quite tasty. Besides Sierra Nevada’s pale ale I have yet to have a pale ale that competes with Boulevards.
