Boulevard Pilsner on tap, Chocolate Ale on shelves (and tap)

You could get your partner a box of chocolates for Valentine’s Day, but that’s cliche. Chocolate in a bottle? Well, that sounds a bit more promising. Boulevard’s Chocolate Ale, a collaboration with chocolatier and ice-cream maven Christopher Elbow, is now on shelves.

It’s also headed for taps around town, joining the latest hometown brew to flow from the keg, Boulevard Pilsner. And while his ice-cream shop, Glace, may not be serving chocolate ale, Elbow is getting into the holiday spirit with chocolate cherry bourbon made with Knob Creek.
