Description
Great beer, great service, great space. Boiler Brewing Company and tap room is located in downtown Lincoln in the historic Grand Manse building. The stately stature of the Grand Manse is accurately reflected in the bold beers that brewmaster Tim Thomssen prefers to make. Aside from the ever rotating list of beers, mead and cider, food is also available. A unique experience in every glass.

Draft at the brewery. Pitch black color, aroma is huge in the coffee bean element.
Again the body is about normal for the gravity. Lots of roasted coffee beans and the finish. Mile chocolate hands throughout the session. Overall, good but it doesn’t blow my socks off

Draft at the brewery. The aroma is huge and chocolate nuances. Like a melted milk chocolate bar in the mini snifter.
The flavor is moderate and chocolate and falls slightly short of the aroma. Cocoa powder. Mouthfeel is a about right for the gravity. Medium body. Mild chocolate finish. Decent.

Draft at the brewery. The aroma is ground coffee beans, nothing more.
The flavor is spot on what the brewer wanted. Yet it is almost exclusively coffee bean. Light body with a lingering earthy coffee. Ummm interesting... straightforward coffee

Draft. A- Coffee grounds. A- Yellow color, clear liquid, white head. T- Coffee. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, strong finish. O- Wow. This was basically like drinking pure coffee. Almost too overpowering, especially for a blonde ale. You literally can taste and smell nothing but coffee. I almost feel like they took their blonde and just filtered it through loads of coffee grounds. Admittedly, I really really liked it, but this is one you’re either going to love or hate because it’s so in your face.

Draft. A- Cherry, oak, subtle whiskey. A- Mahogany color, clear liquid, tan head. T- Cherry, oak. P- Full body, average texture, average carbonation, slightly sweet finish. O- Weird. Not how I would normally picture a barleywine. Seems like it could have been barrel aged but I don’t think it was. A bit of a lingering bitterness as well. Pretty sweet too. Overall, not bad, just different.

Draft. A- Plums, sweet. A- Copper color, hazy liquid, off white head. T- Plums, hard candy, sweet. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, sweet finish. O- Almost no sourness at all. They really need to sour it up. Aroma was much better than the taste which seems to be the case for all Boiler beers. More sourness and less sweetness would really make this great.
