Draught. The bartender actually downsold me from the Palm to this, I didn’t know it was Ommegang, figured it was just relabeled Brooklyn. Anyway I’m glad I did - refreshing, poured amber into a tall glass with a medium heand and a nice spicy hopness with a very clean finish.

Draught from waterfront manhattan around Spring 2010. Nice yeast and aroma without being overpowering or too heavy. Great beer to enjoy multiple glasses of even though the alc is too high for session.

Bottled - again unsure why it took me so long to rate this one. A classic witte, well done and nicely spiced.

Not sure why I have never rated this guy. Bottled, dark rich and lots of fruits and sugars. Excellent stuff

2k7 bottle. Pours a perfect dark brown with a huge but dissipational head. Aroma is caramel raisin and yeast, taste is similar w/malts and a nicely accentuated bit of hops. Well regarded.

Draft. Poured dark brown w/minimal head. Chocolatey taste, raosted malts etc, not that heavy for a stout so I had a few.

Draft. This is a deep yet easy drinking brew, pours medium amber w/plenty of head. Lots of sweetness and flavor, but not too much to not ask for another.

What can I say - I love this beer, one of the better values in NYC that is consistently available (and not skunked or otherwise spoiled) at your local supermarket. Pours golden orange, Complex taste and nice aroma, but not too heavy. A great buy for 6-7$ per .75 and drinkable as hell.

16 ounce can. Number one with a bullet. Hazy amber pour has bluish notes. Rocky off-white head. Subtle aromas of lemon and berries. Flavor follows nose. Lemon, blueberries and brewed tea. Some tanginess. Medium bodied, yet refreshing. Not your typical Kolsch.

Pours a mostly clear gold with a healthy head of foam, lacing and retention is good.
Smell is coffee and vanilla. I get nothing else.
Taste is strong coffee notes, almost as strong vanilla notes, plenty of alcohol...I don't see any semblance of a base Tripel as stated on the label.
Fullish mouthfeel, to me this is not very drinkable.
