Joe, New Belgium Voodoo Ranger Juice Force IPA isn't as sweet as I first imagined prior to saturating my tongue and flooding my mouth cavity with it. The flavor reminds me of orange pith. It is dry at the end of the sip almost like a dry wine leaves your mouth feeling. The lacing on the inside of my beer mug is awesome. When would I drink this? Probably on a rainy day as I was listening to songs that remind me of by gone years.
Bro i learned this beers after taste is fantastic...but thats only within the 1-2 month mark ive deduced after that the finish turns metallic. Guess thats why homebrewing is a good idea, gotta be fresh
🤢 I have slowly left the "hype-train" of hazy IPA's.....perfectly happy drinking a Carlsberg Pilsner or a Labatt Blue. My palate took enough abuse the past several years.
Yep, feel exactly the same way about Juice Force. The regular Voodoo Ranger Juicy Haze is easy drinking and I always enjoy it. Juice Force just doesn't have a good taste, and weirdly enough not because of the ABV, there is something else off about it I don't like. PS - New Belgium is in Fort Collins, about 1 hour or so north of Denver.
We had a buddy tell us we HAD to try the Fruit Force version, said it was alcoholic fruit punch. I found it to be nothing like any fruit punch I've ever had, too candied and about the same finish that you got outta that one. Ah well, can't all be winners. Nice review, cheers 🍻
I ran out of beer camping. The next tent over gave me 2 6 packs of this. First can I was like fuck this shit but no beer so over the next 2 days forced it down. 4 days later I'm at home enjoying my yingling and found myself craving this. Fucking weird but I'm on my own 4th 6 pack since.
Truly bad, a buddy brought a five pack over, he was trying to get rid of it and knew I would hate it too....just wanted to spread the pain. SO bad, artificial, horrible. And I still enjoy the hazies, like TH Green. If you want to try something even worse try the Juice Force "Fruit Punch" IPA
Get your buzz on. I do like the stovepipe options now available. I can pick up some of the OG beers from Stone, FW, Sierra Nevada and Anchor to scratch that itch. I avoid the big sweet imperials IPAs too.
@@jsenigaglia like if you think about pineapples and mangos, think about tropical juice, but the 9.5 makes it just taste strong and not as flavor forward
All i tasted was mainly grape fruit. Not my style. I didnt taste anything artificial. I like Sierra Nevada pale ale. Man why do ipa's have citrus flavor? I don't want a fruit taste natural or artificial in my beer 😂.
I think some of the Voodoo Ranger IPA's are good but I think they are going a bit crazy with this series brewing so many of them. I wish New Belgium would brew some different styles of beers than IPA's for a change like some lagers.
Yes the way you described it was what I tasted and I didn’t not like it at all I took one sip and drain poured the rest, I wasn’t a fan of the artificial sweetness n juice flavor was 🤢🤮🤢🤮🤢🤮.
I feel like NB grabbed that four Loko malt liquor market with this. I've seen homeless people drinking this in LA which is crazy lol but when you think about it it probably tastes better than the other malt liquor they're used to drinking and its like 70 cents more and a few less ounces. I just miss when NB made all their awesome Belgian beers and collabs, Kirin ruined this company and is running with the voodoo brand.
I’m glad I’m not crazy. If I was 22 I could see me drinking these to get drunk easy, but I’m an old ass man these days and ain’t nobody got time for these 👴🏻
This beer is gold for $2.50 better than natty daddy. This dude don’t know beer if it hit him ova the head😂
Saulte sir I was thinking the same thing it's a great beer for 3.18 I'm drinking 1 right now cheers 🍻

Im glad you enjoy it! I just can’t get past that artificial thing it’s got going on! 🍻
This turned out a lot better than I had expected. On the other hand, I wasn't expecting much.
100% 🤣
Bro i learned this beers after taste is fantastic...but thats only within the 1-2 month mark ive deduced after that the finish turns metallic. Guess thats why homebrewing is a good idea, gotta be fresh
Hmmmmm. I’ll see if I can find a super fresh can and give it another chance.

Gimmie all the crispy beers!!
@@jsenigaglia Do you get Deschutes King Crispy down there?
Haven’t tried it yet, but may have to just stick to the cheap American lagers.
That’s the right move 🍻
when i think of the flavor of this beer is makes gag hate this hazy no where near what it smells like
💯🤣🤮
Its like a malt liquor ipa
They must be selling extremely well because they’re everywhere!
Once you coughed from the first sip I knew it was going to be terrible 😂
It wasn’t great 🤣

Have you tried the Fruit Punch variant of it? I've heard its worse, haha!
I can't imagine going to the store anymore and wanting to pick up a beer like this in a can this size.
Haha it’s everything that’s wrong with beer in one package 😬

Many comments have said that same about Fruit Force so it looks like I’m gonna torture myself and drink it 🤣
@@jsenigaglia best of luck to ya! Have a better shelfie on standby to wash the fruit force down with haha
Every thing you said is true....but i still like it lol
Respect! 🍻
Love the retro, love the juice too
That 9.5% gets the job done, no doubt.

Yuengling .. fucking spell check
4th 6th pack?! You don't have to keep doing this to yourself! ;)
Meanwhile, I'm watching this while drinking the same beer from the 12 pack 😂😂😂
It’s rough 😂😂😂
@@jsenigaglia it's an acquired taste to be fair
This beer is like a campy version of a hazy IIPA, insanely (artificially) citrus forward.
It just tastes so fake ya know?
Truly bad, a buddy brought a five pack over, he was trying to get rid of it and knew I would hate it too....just wanted to spread the pain. SO bad, artificial, horrible. And I still enjoy the hazies, like TH Green. If you want to try something even worse try the Juice Force "Fruit Punch" IPA
Jesus it gets worse?! I’ll find some! 🤣
F that beer 😂
🤣💯
Its like the after taste of vomiting after drinking a good IPA and a margarita. I would never drink these if they weren't 9.5.
🤣🍻
Get your buzz on. I do like the stovepipe options now available. I can pick up some of the OG beers from Stone, FW, Sierra Nevada and Anchor to scratch that itch. I avoid the big sweet imperials IPAs too.
Stove pipe cans of SNPA are my shit! I just don’t need 19oz of 9.5% beer 🤣
That's how I feel about all of those Ranger one-offs. It's cheap and available but is a pass for me.
I cant wait to try the Fruit Punch one, haha.
The flavor is pineapple mango
The flavor is nightmarish
@@jsenigaglia like if you think about pineapples and mangos, think about tropical juice, but the 9.5 makes it just taste strong and not as flavor forward
This thing just tastes synthetic to me. The juice taste is so strong that it becomes foul imo.
It’s fucking terrible
All i tasted was mainly grape fruit. Not my style. I didnt taste anything artificial. I like Sierra Nevada pale ale. Man why do ipa's have citrus flavor? I don't want a fruit taste natural or artificial in my beer 😂.
Haha many hops have citrus flavor profiles. I loves me some piney/floral IPAs tho 🍻
@@jsenigaglia 😂 Yeah wish I could get the pine tree with out grapefruit 😂. My taste buds aren't sophisticated 😂.
Now I want to try it... off to bevmo.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
long awaited! it's better than Fruit Force...but that's not saying much at all
I was told to hate myself and try that beer 🤣
modern day bum wine! 😂
🤣🤣🤣

Standard Voodoo Ranger isn’t bad! This is trash tho 🤮🤣

Glad I’m not crazy 🤣🍻
@@jsenigaglia it kinda of reminds me of those Prime drinks, prime advertises there’s no sugar in there drinks but it’s Beetus sweet.

This is the new bum wine for sure! :D
That's my issue with this beer as well. I really wanted to like it, but it tastes obnoxiously artificial and I didn't care for it.
Yeah it’s 🤮
I drank one the other night! I was appalled by the fake ass pallet! Straight fake ass! Made my stomach hurt!
Yeah it’s all bad 🤮
I used to get smashed on these i get sick just thinking of that after Taste 🤮
Bro, it’s awful! I’m glad I’m not crazy 🤣
Yeah, this beer is nasty. The fake flavoring is so overwhelming.
I’m glad I’m not crazy. If I was 22 I could see me drinking these to get drunk easy, but I’m an old ass man these days and ain’t nobody got time for these 👴🏻
You hate like every ipa beer you try 😅
There are 100s of videos on my channel that say otherwise 😂
