Boulevard Chocolate Ale: The White Whale

[smh]

What's the deal with this beer?

Anybody know where I can still find it on tap? It seems that all of the bottles are gone. I didn't realize there was going to be such a run on it.

[KCPowercat]

Rieger I think still has it. Bars supposedly had it at one time.

[PumpkinStalker]

Im seriously doubting rieger still has it. They went through their first if two kegs in two hours last night. I'll bet it's gone.

I am happy I was able to pick up a couple of bottles, but I have yet to find it on tap before it runs out.
I do think the beer is very good, but it does not quite live up to all of the hype.

[KCPowercat]

It's running $50+ on ebay.

I figured as much re: hype. But as a Boulevard fan I'd really like to try it. I can't believe it sold so quickly.

[PumpkinStalker]

I'll sell my bottle for $30!

I'll give you $10.

Grinders sold out around 7:30 on Friday night - and the Brick was also sold out by Saturday morning.

pretty cool to see folks going nuts over a boulevard beer.  we sampled it at the rieger on saturday night - definitely tasty, although i could not have more than one.  smells like a chocolate truffle, but it's surprisingly light and crisp going down.  i assume blvd will make more of this after seeing the insane demand, but i don't know how long it will take.

i had the last of grunauer's keg tonight and it was tasty. served in a snifter. i see what all the fuss is about.

[KCPowercat]

I'm crossing my fingers Rieger still has some.

You are lucky I left you some.  The wife and I had our Valentine dinner at the bar and was amazed at how good it is.

confirmed it was gone Saturday night. Did you not get to try it?  Still got one in my beer fridge if you are desperate. Maybe we can drink it while we are sitting at the fan info booth for the basketball tourn. 

[KCPowercat]

Lol, don't tell the panicky one that...bad enough when we don't use a laptop . Never got there. I was prepping a dinner party and got busy.

"still on tap at some bars and restaurants around town." Anyone have a suggestion as to where? I'd really like to get a taste of this beer.

I've come to accept that I won't be able to acquire a bottle. At least not at retail price.

[KCPowercat]

On tap kc said that foundry went through a keg in 45 min last night.

[smh]

White Whale sightings have returned. Anyone have any luck harpooning this, the most elusive of beasts?

[KCMax]

Rimann Liquors in PV will have it for a few hours today.
