Boulevard 2017 Release Calendar Early Look

I'd definitely be interested in hearing more if you'd like to email me at jdanner at boulevard dot com.

 

Proof again that Boulevard is one of the best breweries out there. Customer service interaction on a level beyond the others.

 

Awesome to get these response, greatly appreciated.

 

I don't think I'll drink BBQ year-round, but I'll definitely drink it more than once a year (as I do now). That is one fine beer.

 

No joke. I saw Funkier Pumpkin hit last week, so I've started resigning myself to the fact that maybe Michigan (or Ann Arbor at least) isn't getting the Rye-on-Rye X Sazerac beer, which makes me incredibly disappointed if true.

RoR might be my favorite beer from Boulevard and Sazerac is one of my favorite cocktails. I'm already saddened by the fact that I didn't see any Rye-on-Rye-on-Rye...

...speaking of which: @TheJermis, is the 2017 edition of RoRoR going to hit bottles?

 

Stay tuned for packaging types for all of the releases.

 

Any plans to sell bombers of the stout aged in Whiskey Barrels? That came in the Great 8 box last year, and would love to be able to buy this solo.

 

We don't package any beer in bombers, only 12 oz and 750 mL bottles. As indicated on the schedule, Imperial Stout (the whiskey barrel-aged stout to which you're referring) goes year-round starting in August. The beer will be in four-packs of 12 oz bottles.

 

Let me check on that for you.

 

That is awesome news! Thanks for the reply!

 

I'm incredibly excited for that Scotch on Scotch - sounds awesome.

 

Loved Funky Pumpkin, I'll be seeking Funkier Pumpkin for sure. I love brett. Love, love, love Saison Brett and it's reasonable to buy.

Did Boulevard stop making Double Wide? I had it years ago via trade before we got Boulevard here in PA.

 

psyched about this but how about rye-on-rye in 4 packs too? that'd be killer...i'd buy a shitload like i do with backwoods bastard

 

We never say never, but there aren't currently plans to move Rye-on-Rye to four-packs.

 

Yes. Double-Wide IPA was retired near the end of 2014.

 

From what @TheJermis mentioned, it sounds like The 4-pack Dark Truth is being replaced by the BA Imperial Stout which will now come in 4-packs? Interesting and awesome at the same time!!!!

Isn't Dark Truth basically the base for the BA Imperial Stout varieties @boulevard Beer?

Also find this interesting considering Dark Truth recently had it's packaging/labeling updateded.

Finally seeing Funky Pumpkin show up in Seattle now (so happy!).

 

I guess Long Strange Tripel will not be available next year? Boulevard has been in NJ for over a year now, and I have not seen it anywhere. Even asked to have it ordered. I hope some makes it here before the end of the year.

 

Hopeful both the Milk Stout and Early Riser Coffee Porter become year rounders in the future.

Can someone please explain what an 'Imperial Pilsner' is and how much different it would be from Boulevards regular Pilsner?

IMO, the Kölsch was fantastic in Boulevards recent variety pack!

Lastly, not to ruffle any feathers, but the 2017 calender seems like another POSITIVE result from the acquisition by Duvel Moortgat. Maybe I'm wrong.......

 

Correct. Dark Truth is being retired and Imperial Stout is switching to year-round four-packs starting in August.

The base beer for Imperial Stout is similar, but higher starting gravity.

We'll likely brew the last batches of Long Strange Tripel soon and what's out there will be the end of it. If you're not seeing it now, it's highly unlikely that you'll see it introduced to your area only to be retired soon.

We don't have any definite plans, but I'd say it's not likely that Early Riser will become a year-round beer. Milk Stout is so new that I can't speak to that at all.

Here's a link to the page for Collaboration No. 1 - Imperial Pilsner which will serve as the inspiration:

No feathers ruffled here. We're quite proud to be members of the Duvel Moortgat family and embrace the challenge of creating several new beers each year. It's definitely a good thing.

 

I'll miss dark truth that's for sure. Hopefully the imperial stout can be a good replacement, I need a good Belgian stout in my rotation.
