Editorial Review for Triple Rock Brewery – by Amanda Scotese

The Scene
After observing the massive brewing machinery at work--viewable through ceiling-high windows--peruse the jukebox's alternative, KALX-style rock tunes. The simple, antique wood bar, classic brewery signs and giant, corroded sign beaming "LUNCH" create an old-time tavern feel. Naturally finished wood is ever-present in the tall booths, wood paneling and floors. The small, rather plain upstairs deck is a pleasant surprise.
 
The Draw
From the subtly smoky Red Rock Ale to the golden, aromatic IPAX, the 10 to 12 rotating beers on tap display expert brewery skills. The fresh, down-home eats attract an easygoing lunch and after-work/school crowd. A pint goes perfectly with the half-pound Angus burgers, flavorful beer-steamed dogs or freshly cut french fries.

I am from the East coast, and my alma mater is Syracuse University (Go ORANGE!) I stopped into Triple Rock to grab a burger, and catch the NIT on their flat screen tv's. To my surprise the menu at Triple Rock offered Buffalo Wings which tasted just like the wings I used to eat back home. The bar was celebrating a 21 year anniversary as well, and the 'Cuse got a win against South Alabama. All & all it was the perfect pub experience, and I will be going back for many days during MARCH MADNESS!

Pros: Upstairs Outddor Patio, Great Brew, Chicken Wings & Burgers

Cons: None

2 Star Rating: Below Average

The beer quality is not very high. You can easily get better beer for less in Berkeley. But perhaps the worst part of T-Rock is the service. I eat out a lot and I have been to T-Rock probably 30 times (it's close to where I live) and the service is absolutely horrible. The wait staff can be rude, they are ridiculously slow, and they often give you information about the menu or beer that is just wrong.

Pros: Close to campus

Cons: Service, Beer
