Boulevard Brewing, KC area BBQ company roll out more beer-flavored sauce in a can

Boulevard Brewing Co. is adding new barbecue sauces to its Can-O-Que line.

The Kansas City brewery first teamed up with Rufus Teague, Lenexa-based producer of barbecue sauces and rubs, in 2019. Now it is bringing back that Unfiltered Wheat-infused sauce and adding two more beer-flavored barbecue sauces using Boulevard’s beers. The sauces are packed in beer cans, which come with a reusable snap-on cap.

▪ Unfiltered Wheat Can-O-Que: Described as having a “sweet flavor with a bit of earthiness and hint of citrus zest.”

▪ Space Camper Can-O-Que: Described as the spiciest of the three recipes. The base “is sweet and fruity, but the spicy boldness accentuates Space Camper’s inherent hoppy kick.”

▪ Tank 7 Can-O-Que: Described as full of flavor, it features “the sweet, herbal taste of cloves and a distinctive peppery punch.”

“Kansas City loves its barbecue and its beer so we were thrilled to be able to collaborate with Rufus Teague once again to bring these new flavors to fruition,” Boulevard brand manager Adam Hall said in a statement.

Prices may vary depending where the cans are purchased.

They retail for $5.95 a can at the Boulevard gift shop, or customers can purchase three-packs for $13.99 or six-packs for $24.99 on the Rufus Teague website.

They also are available in select Walmart, HyVee and Price Chopper locations in the Kansas City area, and in other grocery stores in Missouri, Kansas and Iowa, as well as Rally House and the Made in KC stores.
