New Belgium Brewing Rampant

Aroma: “Moderate malt sweetness with orange and grapefruit hops notes.”

Flavor: “There was a vegetal, almost dill, quality to the flavor. The juicy tropical hops flavors were strong. Maybe there’s something else in there—coriander maybe? Tastes like a bit of Sorachi Ace hops.”

Overall: “While this beer departs from the style a bit, it’s a very enjoyable beer. It’s a unique take.”
