Which boulevard and goose products have decreased in quality? I have a friend who managed to tell by tasting blindly when they moved Honker's production to New York, and even he said it got back to normal a month or two later.
Duvel is absolutely a best-case scenario for a brewery purchase and it seems like Boulevard has been able to continue doing what they do well.
Ballast Point is one of the only breweries I have lost all interest in post-buyout.

- kevinmchugh 8y agoWhat changes do you perceive? I've had a lot of 312 before and after the sale and I've always found it a pretty mild wheat ale.
- monksy 8y agoThe taste is different and isn't as wheaty/hefewiesen-like as it was before. This was reported by many people.
- oblib 8y agoIt was their Single-Wide IPA. I bought kegs of that for probably around 3-4 years before they changed the recipe. It was always a very hoppy beer but it went from a nicely balanced blend of hops to a overly citrusy "grapefruit" taste that's become so trendy in the past 3-4 years now. Same with Goose Island, it was their IPA that changed, and in exactly the same way.
