Space Camper Cosmic IPA is an exhilarating initiation into a mind-bending alternate universe of India Pale Ales. Our brewers employ massive hop additions at the end of the boil, and during fermentation, to minimize upfront bitterness and create a juicy IPA bursting with tropical fruit flavors and aromas of nectar and citrus.

Local favorite of mine and a go-to IPA. Hazy with a light amber color. Head calms quickly to a slight lace with steady bubbles and a bit of sediment at the bottom of the glass. Smell is dank and earthy. Taste is bright up front with a smooth hoppy aftertaste. Very drinkable IPA. Good for tailgating, summer grilling, or just watching the sunset. Boulevard Brewing is a Kansas City icon but they offer almost too many flavors. Space Camper is their best offering in my opinion.

From a twelve ounce aluminum can, this brew is a hazy pale yellow-orange color. The head is fizzy, with some tufts clinging to the glass. The aroma is full of tropical fruit. Mango, Orange, Pineapple. The taste is lightly sweet, with enough bitterness to balance. Full in body. It's okay, but not great.

12oz. can for $2.29 - canned on 6/22/2022 though
Look - light pale gold and hazy, small head that dissipated quickly. Very little lacing left behind.
Smell - fruity, citrus, berries, orange, hints of spice
Taste - sweet fruit, berries, lemon, mango, subdued hoppy bitterness
Feel - medium light body and moderate carbonation, citrus pith finish that is crisp
Overall - a nice IPA at only 5.9% that has a good juicy and fruity flavor with minimal bitterness. Could be a good introduction IPA for the some of the Rook's out there. I enjoyed this brew and paired it with Space Oddity by David Bowie for ultimate satisfaction. Take your protein pills and put your helmet on.

Look: Hazy gold with a white head.
Smell: Right off the bat it's pineapple and citrus, followed by hops and cereals.
Taste: Follows smell. The pineapple is present, though there's a bit more grapefruit along with some hop bitterness here. As advertised, though, this is a relatively un-bitter IPA.
Feel: Medium body, normal carbonation.
Overall: Very approachable IPA. Probably not the first choice for hop fiends but otherwise excellent for easy drinking!

Very slightly hazy golden color with a modest white head that settles down quickly to just a ring but does manage some decent lacing.
The aroma is grapefruit and pineapple with hints of other tropical fruit.
The taste is also grapefruit and pineapple with hints of lemon and passion ruit and a bit of crackery crispness. The finish is somewhat dry, peppery and just a touch of pine, bitterness level is low to moderate..
The body is light/medium, carbonation is moderate, very drinkable.
Altogether, this is a very enjoyable and tasty approach to IPA, refreshing and very drinkable.

Solid. Not bad at all!
Fruity but not too fruity.
Unique, doesn't taste like everything else.
