De Ranke XXX Bitter is a very weighty beer, aggressively brewed to be the hoppiest in Belgium (even more so than its XX Bitter little brother). This triply extra bitter beer is strong and well, bitter, as the name promises. It is made with pale pilsner malt and gets a lot of its punch from a great deal of hops.
Founded as a weekend project by two friends, Nino Bacelle and Guido Devos, De Ranke is very unusual for a Belgian brewery because it produces hop-forward beers.
