True to its name, Boulevard Brewing Co.’s new Amber Ale pours a beautiful cooper color. I thought the aroma was mild but the flavor was bold yet smooth. The malt/hops balance was perfect, leaving a clean finish. With the 5.1 percent ABV, this could be a nice session beer, and also a beer I would introduce to friends who like the mainstream beers but are unsure of those “darker colored” craft beers.
