Boulevard Wheat was one of my first local, craft beers and remains a favorite every time I visit my hometown (St. Louis, MO). Boulevard is now the second largest brewer in Missouri (A-B being the biggest), and has gained a reputation in the craft beer community for a variety of the brews. Yet you may be surprised to learn its also one of the few craft beers you’re likely to see served alongside macro-brew at a college party (at least in Missouri)…
Review via bearablebeer:
What better beer for my first review back than the beer that put Kansas City on the map? This beer is served just as many (if not more (seriously)) than Bud Light here in KC.
The wheat beer pours a hazy golden straw color with a couple of fingers of white head that disappears fast.
Not a lot makes it to the nose, just a bit of yeast.
Not a strong flavor, but is years beyond most American wheats. Yeast and citrus throughout most the taste.
Great carbonation for the style, light in body.
Not a bad beer when going to Applebees or a sports bar, but there is a reason why they serve it everywhere… It’s a light beer that appeals to most non-craft-beer-drinkers, so if you visit KC pass this beer up when recommended as the most popular local brew.
Regardless, Long live Boulevard.
