Boulevard's New Seasonal!

From beernews.org:

"Sierra Nevada Brewing did it last month with Glissade Golden Bock. Now it’s Boulevard’s turn. Word around the blogosphere is that Boulevard Boss Tom’s Golden Bock is a twist on the brewery’s draft-only Maibock."

“First introduced in 2008, Boulevard Maibock is a new, limited-release seasonal brew. A welcome sign of Spring, this beer is a traditional German lager, lighter in color than other bocks. Boulevard’s Maibock is a distinctive, refreshing take on this springtime classic.
SENSORY DESCRIPTION: Medium golden color; caramel and malty with a light bitterness to balance the toasted malty flavors. The finish is crisp and refreshing."

"So who is Boss Tom? The neck label reads, “From 1925 until 1939, Kansas City was controlled by the powerful political boss Thomas J. Pendergast, whose ‘Goat’ faction feuded with rival ‘Rabbits’ for partisan dominance. The atmosphere of graft and lawlessness fostered a boom in jazz clubs and speakeasies, earning our town the title ‘Paris of the Plains.’”

Boss Tom is expected to hit the shelves in early April.

Glissade (which is on the selves now - and seen on tap at Barley's) is a great beer and here's to hoping that Boss Tom will be too! Can't wait to try it!
