It looks like I have been
reviewing a lot of Belgian-style beers recently, well that is true, I have.
Well that is because I love Belgian and Belgian-style beers very much, and I
think that most concerning beers drinkers do as well. The Belgian-style beers are popular
among brewers and breweries; there are some that brew the Belgian-style only.
Well this beer here no different from that; here is Boulevard Brewing
Smokestack Series Tank 7 Farmhouse Ale, 8.5% ABV. Boulevard Brewing is from
Kanas City, Missouri and this is part of the Smokestack Series that is named
after the tall old brick smokestack at their brewery. Tank 7 pours slight hazy
light copper color with a two and half, almost three finger white head, that
somewhat slow to dissipate but does so into nice lacing around the glass. I
found very minimal light streaming through the glass with a decent amount of
carbonation bubbles. The aroma on Tank 7 is a bit fruity with some tropical
fruit notes, like a little faint pineapple. There is a tiny-spiced not that is
barely noticeable. Tank 7’s taste is sweet and bready from it’s malts used and
I found there to a tropical spiced fruit similar to the fruit aroma of
pineapple, but there is a little faint mango as well. Tank 7 has crispness with
little lemony flavor towards the back. The mouth feel is medium, with a nice
somewhat sweet bready and spiced finish and an after taste of spice and bready
malt that linger long enough for enjoyment. Boulevard Brewing Smokestack Series
Tank 7 Farmhouse Ale gets an A. I though this was good Belgian-Style Farmhouse
ale, the really captured the style well with Tank 7. It had nothing wrong with,
nothing overdone. Tank 7 is actually easy to drink for being 8.5% ABV and you
don’t really taste that is that high in ABV. Now yes that could be a bit
dangerous, but Tank 7 only comes in 12 ounce 4 packs and 750ml bottles. Yes I
would recommend this to anyone. So go out and try Boulevard Brewing Smokestack
Series Tank 7 Farmhouse Ale! Cheers! Please enjoy responsible!
