does not count  Jun 6, 2008 I had this only once when I was in a bar in Los Angeles. I liked its inital strong hoppy tone though the finish was nothing to write home about. The kind beer that makes you exhale with an "ahhhh" after a big sip.

Apr 18, 2002 I admit, I saw the word ’triple’ and immediately thought Belgian - wrong! This is more of a red ale style beer - copper amber in color with a fine white foamy head. Aroma is mild, but is definitely hoppy in character. First taste is a sharp hop bite - slightly acidic in character. Unfortunately, nothing much develops after that. There is a slight aluminum or metallic flavor at the finish that is questionable. This is one I want to try again to see if this was just an ’off’ keg.

Feb 8, 2002 Tasting Notes from Fall 2000: Plenty of hops. Smoother than the their ESB, but still falls shy of perfection.

Nov 23, 2000 A great beer from a great brewery. Malt nose, and a hint of the hops upon the pour, starts malt sweet, but finishes with a nice hop bite. A once in a life time treat.
