Area Two Experimental Brewing RUMBBL
What the brewers say
“Tart with tropical-fruit notes, hints of oak, vanilla, and sugar cane.”
What our panel thought
“Massive rum and barrel character up front. The combination of the passion fruit, subtle stone fruits, and spiced rum reminds one of a sweet fruity tropical cocktail. This beer is distinctive, but it’s hard to decide whether it works.”
What our editors thought
“An overbearing rum nose is polarizing—fans of the liquor will love it; others will hate it. The effect on the passion-fruit beer within is significant—the booziness of the rum flavors fights a pitched battle with the funky passion-fruit notes.”
