New Belgium Rolle Bolle: Review

New Belgium Brewery
Fort Collins, Colorado, USA


Ale brewed with soursop and monkfruit
Summer Seasonal
5.5% abv

Appearance: crystal yellow with bubbles slowly rising to the top of a white one finger head.

Aroma: a nice aromatic note on the pour; light fresh fruit and a soft citrus feel


Flavors: light citrus meat, fresh apple and pear, bread, light floral feel on the back of the palate; delicate and simple overall and it was made for drinking during the summer

Mouthfeel: light citrus rind twist on the palate, lightly bitter/tart on the aftertaste, light-medium in body, good carbonation to keep it crisp


To the Point: New Belgium Company says on the bottle that it is made for playing summer games – you don’t want it much more complex than this simple style for summer fun; get the bocce balls and jart game out and let’s play.  It’s simple, refreshing, and should be just tasty enough to be enjoyed in the summer heat.
