Boulevard Brewing–Smokestack Chocolate Ale

Here’s your first look (keg & bottle packaging approved today) at the Boulevard Brewing (Kansas CIty, MO) Smokestack Series Chocolate Ale.  This is a collaboration brew with Christopher Elbow (a Kansas City Chocolatier) and will be packaged in 750ml bottles (@ 9.1% ABV).  “

One of the brightest of Kansas City’s culinary stars, Christopher Elbow has earned a worldwide reputation for his handcrafted chocolate masterpieces. His sweets are distinguished by their use of unusual, sometimes surprising ingredients, and that adventurous spirit has left its print on this special ale. The aroma is given over to earthy, fruity cocoa, with just a hint of hops. Smooth layers of dark chocolate intertwine with threads of caramel, vanilla, and nutty malt as the flavor warms and rounds to a bittersweet finish.”
