Let the Competition Begin!

Yeah, that post just below? Where I said I encouraged lower ABV competition to Founder's All Day IPA?





It's here! Regional powerhouse craft brewer Boulevard just announced their new Pop-Up Session IPA, and yes, it's at 4.2% ABV.

Haven't had this yet -- never been able to get on Boulevard's press samples list -- but it sounds good:

A blend of our base pale, Marris Otter, and amber malts creates a simple, yet adequate malt backbone that allows Mosaic, Cascade, Amarillo, Citra, and Centennial hops to shine with bright, fruity, citrus notes. 


Here we go! This is officially a hot category!

  1. Boulevard used to make the ultimate session ale, it was called Tenpenny Ale. It was 3.25% abv. I really liked this beer but alas, they discontinued it around 2000.

    It would be nice to see it revived. Love to see it on cask.
