Boulevard Brewing Company
The Calling IPA
Kansas, USA
Sweet grapefruit citrus, yellow tomato, tangerine, overripe lemon, lime zest, jackfruit and orange blossom aromas. Double doses pull down the cloud curtain on this cider colored, golden creature. Mimosa-greyhound combo leaning heavier on the ruby-grapefruit. Lemon cake with a light glaze, lime pith, lemon zest, and round with its muscles flexed to a lemon pudding. Nice sage and thyme on the finish. With just a fresh snap pea bitterness to keep it honest.

Pale golden color. Pineapple and mango, light biscuit malt. Mostly dry with a slightly sweet aftertaste. Medium body. Very drinkable, especially considering ABV, which is elegantly balanced. Very good though perhaps lacks complexity of a truly great IPA. I also think Boulevard's Double Wide was more unique/interesting.

Nov 6th, 2015Gorgeous beer! The color is pure gold, sporting a fine mousse, silky 'fro, and the filigreed lacing is exquisite! Smells of pineapple custard, ripe lemon, sugar cookie dough, dried nettles, pine sap and pistachio. Harmonious palate is buttery, with vanilla bean, a light cigar wrap finish that twists into a wood and metallic point! Perfectly proportioned, sexy, and a dancer! This siren is calling you!

Expensive but very nice. Balanced between hops and caramel.

Awesome. Strong but balanced. Great on its own, and would go great with a wide range of food, unusual for a strong IPA.

What a treat! Explosive bitter citrus upfront, lingering grapefruit rind on the back, a superb IPA.
