Commercial Description:
Unofficially known as The "George Brett" - a reference given at the Ommegang BCTC festival in 2006. George Brett is a baseball Hall of Famer who played in Kansas City, Boulevard’s hometown, and the festival is held in the same town as the MLB HOF, hence the mildly humorous play on words.

750 mL bottle. Great aroma of grassy fields, flowers, tart apples. Orange pour with a sufficient white puffy head. Dry taste with a sweet tart like flavor with other fruits integrated such as apricot, pineapple, and musk melon. Very easy drinking beer. Very good. I’m still a bit partial to Dupont Avec Les Bons Voeux, but this comes in at a close second. Mindblowingly good!

750ml bottle: This one opened with a very loud "pop", but didn’t overflow at all. This one poured a hazy golden color. There was a large, fluffy head that leaves some nice lacing. The aroma is nicely balanced. Brett, pineapple, other fruits, earthy, some citrus, hint of spice. Interesting taste. The first thing that hits you is a bit of sourness, and then a little bitterness. Medium body. Earthiness, a little yeast, citrus among the other flavors. Nice!

My Bottom Line:
This Wild Ale’s expansive effervescence propels the coniferous brettanomyces through the straw-like cereals and pineapple subtleties for a world-class brew.

Further Personal Perceptions:
-A slice of foam garnishes the misty bright golden.
-The brettanomyces and hops team up for a wonderfully minty, herbal display.
-There is no sign of the alcohol in this one.
-I still prefer the regular Saison to this one, but I can’t deny this is superbly executed and highly pleasurable.

Bottle.

750 ml. Hazy, deep golden body. Huge, white, frothy head, mostly lasting. The aroma is dominated by brett with its leathery/laquer smell along with some hints of barnyard and plastic band-aid There are notes of toasted grain, resin, lemon. The flavor is moderately sweet, moderately bitter and lightly acidic. It finishes lightly to moderately sweet, moderately bitter and moderately acidic. Medium body, watery texture that turns velvety in the finish, lively carbonation. The brett and bitter resin are most noticable, but there is sweet citrus in the background. Boulevard’s regular saison is better — more complex, better balanced probably because none of the outstanding aromas and flavors have to compete with the brett. This is still pretty good, though.

Bottle. Pours a hazy pale yellow with a big white head. Tart citrus aroma with brett. Sweetish. Flavour is citrus hops again – not a lot of brett here though. Finish is dry with citrus and a bit of alcohol. 26-09-09.
