With InBev’s takeover of Anheuser-Busch, Boulevard Brewing Co. became Missouri’s largest American-owned brewery. Its promotion has not gone to Boulevard’s head or, more importantly, to its products. Boulevard makes fantastic beer, fact. From its top-selling Unfiltered Wheat to its adventurous Smokestack Series, beer snobs and everyday Joes can unite behind this Midwestern gem. And, you need not reside in the Midwest to enjoy a Boulevard. Its products are available in over 24 states from California to Massachusetts. (Click here).
Last summer, Boulevard released its newest year-round beer: 80-Acre Hoppy Wheat Beer. We at G@H lack the enlightened palates to jabber about citrusy notes and potential food pairings. But, we have tried (and retried and tried again) lots of beer, and we enjoy 80-Acre. If Boulevard’s Unfiltered Wheat and Pale Ale had an unplanned yet adored lovechild, 80-Acre is what it would taste like. Wait, that sounded strange, right? Regardless, find 80-Acre and try it.

Currently, my favorite Boulevard beer. If Bob’s 47 was year round, there may be some debate. But the 80-Acre is a beer lover’s beer, filled with flavor with just the right amount of hoppiness (sp?). Guaranteed to put hair on a man’s chest, believe me I should know…
