(Kansas City, MO) – Boulevard Grainstorm Black Rye IPA, a new seasonal Smokestack series release, “will be bottled this Friday and ready for distribution shortly after the new year,” says Boulevard Marketing Communications Manager, Julie Weeks. “Also, for all of you Rye-on-Rye lovers, Central States plans on distributing the beer throughout Kansas City starting next Tuesday.”

Here is the Grainstorm copy per the back label:

“Just when you thought it was safe to come out of the root cellar, along comes Grainstorm, a big, wet wallop to the sense. Dark clouds gather on the horizon of your glass. A high-pressure system of pungent hops collides with a stationary front of barley, oats, wheat, and rye. The froecast: a monsoon of flavor with surges of roasty malt, microbursts of fruity notes, and a chance of golfball-sized hail. The extended outlook calls for unseasonably pleasant enjoyment.”

Look for the beer on draft and in 750ml bottles in January.
