With an amazing baseball season fresh in our memory, we brewed Crown Town Ale to celebrate the inspiring achievements of our hometown team. Weeks before the last out on October 29th, we recognized our need and desire to brew a beer as a fan-to-fan celebration with you, the fine people of Kansas City. The electric energy present during the month of October is something to be commemorated. To that end, 750 ml bottles of Crown Town Ale will only be available in the Greater Kansas City Area.

Crown Town Ale, stylistically, is a Golden Ale featuring pale, honey, and Munich malts balanced by a subtle bitterness imparted by Magnum hops. To complement a crisp, citrusy hop aroma provided by Lemon Drop, Saphir, and Northern Brewer hops, we added dried orange peel to the wort right at the end of the boil during the brewing process. Fermentation was carried out by our house ale strain, used in perennial favorites Unfiltered Wheat Beer and Pale Ale, to create light, fruity esters. At 6.2 ABV and 25 IBUs, Crown Town Ale was brewed to be a refreshing beer worthy of everyday drinking, but special enough to celebrate such an amazing run. Delicate in nature, Crown Town Ale is not meant to be cellared or stored for extended periods of time. Please enjoy this celebratory beer while it’s fresh.

750mL cork&cage from Bob, thank you soooo much. I can’t believe Blvd decided to release a bunch of KC market beers since I left. Its like they waited for me to leave, bastards! Aroma has a lemon but mostly similar to Belgian biscuit. Its a strong aroma, a little sweet, candle lemon. Its not bad but thick and a bit too mucky. Flavor is similar. I want it to be cleaner and clearer with less lemon candle. Overall not bad but I see why its made once.

750ml corked and caged bottle given to me by my Father in Law for Christmas. The pour is a lightly hazed golden copper with a one inch white head. The head falls slow with loose foam and nice lace. The aroma is soft malt grain, lightly sweet and fairly simple. The taste is the lightly sweet malt, cereal grain and a hint of citrus. The grain lingers in the finish. Somewhat non-descript, though fresh and clean taste. The palate is medium to light bodied with active natural carbonation. Sweet cloys slightly in the finish along with some grass. Thanks for this one Tom!
