Description
Verboten, which opened in early 2013, is a true boutique brewery. The Sixteen tap handles, including one Nitro tap, rotate often so that new beers can be introduced every few weeks. The brewery also uses as much seasonal and local ingredients as possible in each of our handcrafted ales. At Verboten, we create unique beers taking typical beer styles and adding our own twist to make our constantly rotating selections new and exciting.

Sample at Denver Rare Beer Tasting VII on 09/25/2015. Dark reddish-brown color with a medium thin light beige head that dissipates steadily to an outer ring. Short strings of lacing. Aroma of bourbon, rye and malt. Full-bodied with flavors of oaky bourbon, rye malt and fruit. The finish is oaky with a mildly spicy rye aftertaste. Pretty good all around.
