Blushing Monk

Fruit Beer

Blushing Monk is brewed with a ridiculous amount of raspberries and with a Belgian yeast strain that keeps our head cellar operator from sleeping for a week. It pours a stunning deep berry red and, at 9.2% ABV, has a surprising kick. The perfect dessert beer, it can be enjoyed on its own or paired with fresh cheeses, fruit, cakes and more.

Sure doesn’t taste like 9.2%!

Very very sweet, heavy bodied, raspberry is pretty much only flavor. Excellent dessert drink, but not repeatable - not made for downing a six-pack! Recommended.

Definitely more of a dessert beer, very jammy wine flavor with a hint of Belgian funk. Didn’t love it, but a unique beer to say the least

Great initial tartness with boozy after taste, raspberries make for a great accent.

Boordevol frambozen. Zeer gezond waarschijnlijk. 🤓

High alcohol. Very sweet with lots of raspberries, almost cloying. Good dessert drinker.

Founders is my favorite brewing company right now they just keep making fire beers, wow. This one isn’t generally my style but I love how they keep a high ABV and make it like a strong American take on lambic beer. It tastes dank yah feel me?

Very good fruit beer. Very raspberry in a good way and doesn't taste like a 9.2% ABV

Had this one for a while. Sweet and tart cherry flavor. Good change of pace from all the dark stouts I had the past couple of days.

Very sweet and a bit tart and finishes, well, like raspberry syrup. Interesting!

Very fruity followed by a strong tartness. I could drink the entire 4-pack, but probably shouldn’t!

Sweet fruity notes upfront. Getting those Belgiany notes as well. Very subtle sour and tart notes.

Light sour and tart, Some raspberry. It reminds me of a sparkling rose wine with notes with slight sour raspberry. Great for the summer.
