Commercial Description:
Rose is named for Portland, Oregon, the Rose City. Originally called Golden Rose, this Beer started life as a straight forward Belgian Tripel and evolved into a Beer made with beets, hibiscus flowers and pink peppercorns. She has always been inspired by the Belgian style known as Tripel, which has a low level hops and is deceivingly light in body for its alcohol strength. This is achieved through the use of imported Belgian candi sugar. Not Brewed since 2005.

12 fl oz bottle from Ølkonsortiet. Batch 41. Abv is 7,5%. Brown color with a small white head. Aroma is spicy with dried fruit. Flavor is sweet with dried fruit, malt and spices. Strange, but good tripel.

Bottle, 7.5%. Papery, moldy, berrylike aroma. Clear dark amber colour. The flavour starts off with berry, turns to some liquorice root, and then fruity hard berries.Ä If this is a tripel, my arse is a banjo.

Batch 34 thanks to kyzr. This beer is unlike any other tripel that I have head. Pours with a small, rocky quickly dissapearing head that left no lacing covering a hazy dark amber body that is way too dark for the syle. Aroma of brandy, plums, cherries, raisins, raspberries, sugar and honey. Taste is yeasty with fruits (rasisns and currants), canilla and candi sugar. Taste is good, but not faithful to the style in the slightest. On the syrupy side and nearly flat (again not too style). Alcohol is pronounced for 6%. Unsure how old this batch is. A good beer, but not a tripel in my book! Last 1/4 of the bottle, when added to my glass turned the beer the same color and clarity of mud.

Bouteille de 355 ml, bu à Volo à Toronto, le 12/7/08. Rousse un peu brumeuse, pas de collet. Arome d’épice sûrette, malte caramelisé. Goût très sûrette, notes de bétrave, un peu épicé et pas très malté. Un triple bizzard, point!

Bottle. Batch 38. Deep golden color with an off-white head. Strong nose of alcohol (port wine/brandy) caramel, raisins and honey. Taste of raisins, pepper and spice. Nice finish.
