BOTTLED BEER

and nutty flavors shine through.
Jackie O’s, Dark Apparition—Athens, OH 12oz. Snifter $7.00

an extremely smooth mouthfeel..
Southern Tier, 2XPresso — Lakewood, NY
Double Milk Stout
7.5%ABV 55IBU 16oz Pint $6.00
Espresso is a drink that is not for the faint of heart. Pulling a perfect shot is
as much a science as it is an art form. Come to think of it, the same can be
said for brewing beer. Of course, both coffee and beer have certain, shall
we say ‘uplifting’ qualities. Combine the two is a natural progression.

pronounced hoppy aroma and extra dry taste.

of citra and mosaic hops. Don’t worry, no fruit was harmed in the
making of this beer.
Stone, Enjoy by 2-14-15 —Escondido, CA 12oz. Snifter $6.00
Double IPA 9.4%ABV
You have in your hands a devastatingly fresh double IPA. While freshness is a key component of many beers - especially big, citrusy, floral
IPAs - we've taken it further, a lot further, in this IPA. You see, we specifically brewed it NOT to last. We've not only gone to extensive lengths
to ensure that you're getting this beer in your hands within an extraordinarily short window, we made sure that the Enjoy By date isn't randomly etched in tiny text somewhere on the label, to be overlooked by
all but the most attentive of retailers and consumers. Instead, we've
sent a clear message with the name of the beer itself that there is no
better time than right now to enjoy this IPA

Boulevard, Tank 7 — Kansas City, MO 12oz. Snifter $5.25
Saison/Farmhouse Ale 8.5% ABV 38 IBU
Most breweries have at least one piece of equipment that’s just a bit
persnickity. Here at Boulevard we have fermenter number seven, the
black sheep of our cellar family. Ironically, when our brewers were
experimenting with variations on a traditional Belgian-style farmhouse ale,
the perfect combination of elements came together in that very vessel.
You could call it fate, but they called it Tank 7, and so it is. Beginning with
a big surge of fruity aromatics and grapefruit-hoppy notes, the flavor of th
