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. Pours a mostly clear burnt orange color with a minimal white head that dissipates quickly to a sparse outer ring. Spotty lacing. Aroma of tart fruit, yeast and malt. Medium body with flavors of tart peaches, malt, yeast and subtle salt. The finish is sour with a peach and citrus aftertaste. Pretty good overall.
