Bolero Snort Brewery

Ridgefield Park, NJ

Bolero Snort About Bucking Time! Funfetti
Imperial IPA - 8.1% ABV
Pete
     Definitely sweet, but this tastes impressively similar to funfetti. Gotta give a huge amount of credit for that. I could get into beer tasting like cake.

Bolero Snort Blueberry Moosaic
IPA - 6% ABV
Pete
     Great creamy IPA. I didn't really taste any blueberry, but it was a great beer anyway.

Bolero Snort Boysenberry Moosaic
New England IPA - 6% ABV
Pete
     Super creamy texture, but surprisingly not super fruity. Still pretty good.

Bolero Snort Bullyum
Pale Ale - 4.4% ABV
Pete
     Thai chili, ginger, and lime don't sound like they'd result in a mellow beer, but this actually is. The flavors are there, but subtle. Nice.

Bolero Snort Cherry BOVB
IPA - 6.3% ABV
Pete
      Definitely creamy, but something about the cherry, orange, IPA combo really didn't work for me. The original sounds better, not a big cherry in beer guy (except Cherry Wheat). Update: the original is not better.

Bolero Snort Dirty Snowbull Fights
Imperial Milkshake IPA - 8.1% ABV
Pete
     This sounds like it's going to be weird. Take a whole bunch of fruity/earthy hops, then add vanilla and PEANUT BUTTER, but somehow it works incredibly well. The peanut butter is subtle, and definitely adds some complexity to the beer without being weird. This is really excellent.

Bolero Snort OVB
Milkshake IPA - 6.3% ABV
Pete
     I've had other "milkshake" IPA's before and loved them. This is a relatively early version of those. Unfortunately, this was absolutely terrible. The vanilla and creaminess were just too odd without any roasted flavors that typically go with that (from stouts). I had a few friends try it, and we all had the same reaction, which was apparently bad enough that the bartender took it away from me and refused to let me finish it. Good bartender, bad beer.

Bolero Snort Pumpkin Spice Moochiato
Coffee Stout - 7% ABV
Pete
​     Coffee is very upfront, and there's lots of it. I was afraid the pumpkin spice would overwhelm, but it doesn't. It's there, and it's enough to add to the flavor, but not too much.

Bolero Snort The Final Countdown
New England IPA - 7.65% ABV
Pete
     A little bit of creaminess, but not as much as a typical NEIPA. Nice and zesty, making this very crushable.
