BOULEVARD BREWING CO. IN BETHESDA?

WE'RE NOT IN
KANSAS CITY
ANYMORE

Another Robert Dyer @ Bethesda Row Exclusive

Kansas City-based Boulevard Brewing Co. beers have arrived on the East Coast in recent weeks for the first time.  The Midwestern favorite is sending some of its best Smokestack Series bottles our way, and Capital Beer and Wine has The Sixth Glass and Dark Truth Stout in stock - while they last!

Dark Truth Stout is an Imperial stout Boulevard describes aptly as "black liquid gold."  Its flavor promises hints of espresso, roasted fig and creme brulee.

Even more intriguing is the Hans Christian Anderson-inspired The Sixth Glass.  (Who said beer wasn't educational?  Now you'll want to read HCA's classic, "The Watchman of the Tower," to fully appreciate this bottle).  What would go better with a good book on an autumn evening than this Belgian dark strong ale?  Its malty flavor comes off sweet, with a scent of dark fruit and caramel.  Try it with a selection of cheddar, Gouda, and Havarti cheeses, and finish with a chocolate dessert.

Stop by Capital Beer and Wine on Norfolk Avenue, and try a rare "import" from the great state of Missouri tonight.
