I mixed a Young's Double Chocolate stout with Lagunita's Cappuccino stout and it was delightful. Boulevard's Chocolate ale was not enjoyable. It was not well balanced and I would get a hint of cocoa in the aftertaste about every third or fourth drink. To me, it was like a mediocre homebrew. I checked, but the bottle I had was not the bad batch.

Enjoyed it more on tap than I did in the bottle. Good stuff.

I wanted to try it. Very badly. But after two liquor stores didn't have it, I decided some things in life are just not to be had by a common man that is unwilling to go through extreme effort to attain them. I mean, I'll never party at the Playboy mansion either, and I finally came to grips with that last year.

Might be the single best beer I've had in this life. If I saw another 750 of it right now, I'd have to break into the stash to buy it.

Everything Elbow gets involved in is amazing.

It's a nice novelty beer, but not something that I would actually buy year round. And I will concur with Zach, I found it to be much better on tap. The chocolate flavors don't come out nearly as full from a bottle.

Figured this was appropriate for this thread.

Has anyone taken a tour of Boulevard?

May look into doing something like this one year for my birthday or something.

I doubt it's worth it, but if srs... There's someone willing to sell.

My girlfriend is going to be very upset.

We should really consider doing a CP function there. Just under $30 per person for a 3 hour tasting room rental and brewery tour for up to 35 people on a Friday or Saturday night.

I still think the Pony Express 37 Forever party catered by Jose Pepper was the best grown-up party with which I've been associated. And Pony Express was a fairly mediocre brewery. I had an absolute blast and so did everybody else. We didn't have a single complaint.

Based on your posts in this thread, you're a Miller Lite drinker. You're not going to understand.

I could swing that. We'll have to try coordinating that.

Being a Midwestern guy -- I absolutely love Boulevard's brews. Touring their factory and doing a tasting tour would be a great time.

If this is something that spawns CP interest you can count me and probably the girlfriend in depending when the event may transpire.
