Read More“What do you get when you cross a mythical military mascot, a Vietnamese restauranteur (and beer fan), and one of many near non-sensical Tik Tok phenomenons? In this case, you get a juicy Virginia New England Style IPA ...”
Read MoreDubuisson characterizes the resultant Refermentée as an Amber Tripel, although beer sites call it a Strong Dark Ale. Not quite a Tripel’s flavor profile and not dark enough to be dark, we wonder at either designation. No matter what you end up calling it, the important thing is that you come to your conclusion over a glass.

Though rye is frequently a side player, in this shop favorite, Kansas City, MO’s Boulevard Brewing Company reaches out and fully embraces your deli’s favorite earthy, spicy, savory grain.”
