PWalk (332), Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA Jun 30, 2005 A pretty damn good tripel. Cloudy orange in the glass, hell I was surprised they served it in the proper glass to begin with. Flavor and aroma are both that of citrus and yeast. Very tasty and suite surprisng.
egajdzis (2947), Terrapin, Pennsylvania, USA Jun 19, 2005 Poured a hazy orange color with a small, white head that left nice lacing on the glass. Aroma of orange citrus, yeast, spices, and phenols. Taste of banana and citrus, cloves, yeast, and light alcohol. Wow, a great beer, the best the RB in KOP makes. TomDecapolis (2389), Skippack, Pennsylvania, USA Jun 6, 2005 Updated: Jun 7, 2005On tap at Rock Bottom in KOP. This Tripel was served very cold with little to no head (which I guess wasn’t so bad because you could tell the bar tender was just trying to fill the snifter the most they could). Golden/hazy in appearance. Nice attemp by RB at an Abbey Tripel. The aroma was nice but a bit weak. Started a little sweet but moved quickly to sour. A bit of sour apple going on. DocLock (4083), Lower Pottsgrove, Pennsylvania, USA Jun 1, 2005 Draft at KOP. Hazy gold pour with aroma of candi sugar, Brett, bready malt. Tastes hopcity, truly Belgian, with big Brett, sour fruit, and candi dugar in the finish. The Americans are catching up to the Belgians with tripels. This one is outstanding! hopdog (4525), Lansdale, Pennsylvania, USA May 22, 2005 On tap at the Rock Bottom in KoP. Waiter told me this one was brewed with 40lbs of candi sugar (and he said it was like a ’Chimay’). Served in a snifter glass. Poured a cloudy/hazy orange/brown color with smaller sized off white head. Fruity aroma (apples). Tastes of green apples, pears, and citrus. This one started out medium sweet and ended with a slight sourness to it.
