3.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Pours hazy yellow with thin white head with some lacing. Aroma is citrusy with some hops and slight phenol. Some malt and citrus taste with mild hoppy grass that is full. Moderate body with good carb and somewhat dry finish. Really liked, good all around drinking beer but a little high in ABV for session beer. Bought at Hyvee and consumed at Vernon's poker night 9/8/12.

2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Pours slightly cloudy yellow with a thick, clumpy white head. Nose is a little sweetish malt and an unpleasant astringent note. Mild bitterness in the flavor and alcohol. Made my head pound. I didn’t like this much.
2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Draught. Pours a mostly clear golden color with a moderate white head. Nose and taste are both a little sweet with a hint of that skunky note that so many in the lager style have. Very flavorful, but I’m not a huge fan of it.
4.2 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Great pilsner but nothing spectacular which is what I’ve came to expect from the boulevard smokestack series.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Tasty lager. Nice yeasty and malt aroma. Almost grassy. Clear golden color with white foamy head. This is a true pilsner with some punch. The flavors seemed amped up. Same standard pilsner taste but with more German malts. Crisp with a nice amount of hops presence. Not dry but clean and well balanced.
3.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 16/20
Draft at Grumpy’s NE. No aroma to speak of. Pale yellow with virtually no head or lace nor visible carbonation. Very good imp pils though I’ve had two others better.
3.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Very nice texture and sweet flavors. Sweet and boozy with Not much bitterness, which puts it a little close to the malt liquor zone. Thoroughly enjoyable.

2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 7/20
Pilsner. From draft. Not sure the ratings are good on this. I think it tastes like cat pee. Don't like it at all
3.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
bottle. Aroma is modest but pleasant, as should be for a pils, with notes of light hops and corn malt. Flavor is rich but clean, notes of white cake, lightly bittered hops. Palate is medium, still retains a light feel but you can still its an imp, crisp and smooth. Overall another great beer from the smokestack series, liked it a lot.
