Beer Review: Rhinegeist Trip Trap

A beautiful day for some beer drinking and cigar smoking, and here is a look at another one of the beers that I enjoyed while having lunch at one of our local establishments, Buffalo Bob’s. Trip Tap is one of the new brews from Rhinegeist Brewery here in Cincinnati. Funny thing is I thought it was one of the other beers at first when I received the beer and it just didn’t seem right. Luckily my spider sense was tingling and I was able to gather more details to find out that it was a different beer. Watch the video and you will see what I mean, but back to the beer.

Trip Trap is an American Pale Ale that has an alcohol content of 5.7% ABV and 48 IBU. Check out my video below to see what I thought about the beer and then become surprised to find out it is different than expected. I am glad that I did because it didn’t taste anything like the Trips, and was afraid that I was losing something, lol.

So grab a pint, turn on the video and join me while you “Get Your Beer On.” Cheers!
