Boulder Draft House Reviews

Bebum	3.2 Boulder Draft House Imperial Chocolate Porter Opaque, typical fine nitro foam on top. Light and watery body, medium flavor, weak and unstructured mouthfeel, lacking also in alcohol heat, avg length. Bitter but not dry, low acidity. Chocolate and other roast flavors. Good flavor but nothing to support it. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone Friday, February 20, 2015

alagnak	3.9 Boulder Draft House 44 Pale Ale Draft and growler from the brewpub. Nose is really full of citrus - tangerines and grapefruit. No doubt in the aroma that this is an APA on the bitter/hoppy side as some piney hops are there too. Some bready biscuit malt shows first on the tongut, before seceeding it’s ground to the grapefruit and pine. Finishes clean and crisp. Great growler to split in the backseat on the way to the casinos. Friday, December 25, 2009

Travlr	3.2 Boulder Draft House Oatmeal Stout Draught at RFD. Very black, medium light tan head, long-lasting. Aroma of black bread and raisins. Light smoke flavor, but not too much else, maybe just a bit of roasted coffee. But overall lacks complexity. Wednesday, October 28, 2009

Gorbalev	3.8 Boulder Draft House 44 Pale Ale On tap at the brewpub. Nice orange/copper, good sized white head. Interesting aroma - hops and malt, but the hops are almost nutty, if that makes sense. Taste is decent as well - the hop mix here, Cascade and amarillo I think the menu said, is quite unique - the nuttiness and sweetness mix with the cascade quite nice. Good body, easy to drink, full of flavour - great pale ale. Friday, May 8, 2009
Gorbalev	3.8 Boulder Draft House Feisty Fiddler IPA On tap at the brewpub. Nice glowing orange, good sized white head. Pure grapefruit hop juice aroma.

A nice hop juice treat that you could drink a few of at this alcohol. Friday, May 8, 2009
