Beer Review: Boulevard Smokestack Series - Tank 7 Farmhouse Ale

Beer #3 for me in Boulevard's Smokestack series, Tank 7 is similar to Belgian Whites with their characteristic creamy-butterscotchy flavor and smooth mouthfeel (I don't make these words up people). The 8% ABV gives it a bit of a kick, but it's smooth nonetheless. The pour was a snowy white head that required pouring in two stages to accommodate the foam. Hazy golden hue, obviously unfiltered. Virtually no alcohol heat, but afterwards you knew you had ingested a little extra alcohol! Hints of bananas and bubblegum, similar to Dunkelweizens, but very dry. You can't drink too many, but you'll enjoy every drop.
