5 AROMA 10/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 10/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 20/20
This is the best American IPA I’ve ever had. It pours with a foamy white head with a rich amber-colored body. Citric aroma and very hoppy, good flavor. The effect it has on the palate is what separates this IPA from others. Good, rich beer!
4.9 AROMA 10/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 10/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 19/20
This is a good, high alcohol IPA. I like the boozy nature. I like the citrus. The other stone fruits were subtle, but still there. The finish was warm but largely clean. Good, big, IPA.
4.8 AROMA 10/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 19/20
This is a great IPA. I think this should be categorized as an Imperial IPA. It’s as good as Bell’s Hopslam, which is my favorite beer. Big, white, fluffy head. Orangeish. Awesome. Only 55 IBU? The dry-hopping is deceiving here.
4.8 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 10/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 20/20
This is probably my favorite beer. It has an amber orange color pour and you can smell the hops as soon as you open the bottle. It has a nice thick white head. The flavor is citrus and grass and you feel it move through your nose as your drink it. A wonderful IPA.

Pours sunset orange with a small off-white head. Smells of citrus and grapefruit. Tastes is bitter, grapefruit, citruses, and a touch of flowers. Medium-bodied with a slick texture and decent mouth-carbonation, Boulevard Smokestack Series - Double Wide IPA finishes with a grapefruit kick.
4.8 AROMA 10/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 19/20
This is a very complex beer, there is a lot going on. Taste stays with you for a little bit and keeps getting better even after the beer is down the hatch. Strongly recommend the beer, as well as following the glass recommendations, makes a huge difference.
4.8 AROMA 10/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 10/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 18/20
Probably the best IPA I’ve ever had, second to Dogfish 90/120 Minute. Beautifully creamy head and mouthfeel with lots of carbonation. Grapefruit, vanilla, licorice, bread, chocolate, clove etc. etc. Dark, dark flavors, this is not for the faint of heart. Hop lovers rejoice. If you love IPA’s, then you need some of this. Good job Boulevard.
4.7 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 10/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 18/20
One of the best IPA’s out there. Pours a cloudy, unfiltered rust/bronze with a fascinating spicy nose. The palate is singular as an IPA as it delivers complexity not evident in most beers in this category. Spiced orange and peach with Meyer lemon. Endless finish.
4.6 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 18/20
This was pretty awesome. Nice dark orange pour with medium head, full mouth and a definite full citrus taste.
4.6 AROMA 10/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 10/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 18/20
750ml Btl. Pours dark amber. Thick, rich and very long lasting frothy head. Hops and citrus notes with a dash of apricot. Still waiting for the head to dissolve. The sensation on the tongue is slightly off the mark; exspecting a little more biitterness. The taste however, responds quite well. The finish is somewhat intense and flavorful, very good!
