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.

A great, refreshing Belgian-style ale, with strong notes of raspberry. It’s almost like a sour, but with the lightness of an ale. Definitely something to drink out by the pool when it’s hot. Didn't give it a 5 because it’s pretty sweet.

This is so good. It's a dessert beer but not quite as sweet as say a lambic. I am surprised by how much I like this.

Yum! Yum yummy yum. It was such a real, authentic, tart raspberry flavor. I could drink a dozen of these. A practically perfect sour fruit beer pairs well with gorgeous spring afternoons.

Tastes like fresh raspberry juice yet is a 9% beer. I’d say it’s magic but some don’t believe in that so we will go with the best beer ever.

absolutely the best "fruit beer" I've ever tasted. Substantial tart raspberry flavor but perfectly blended with Belgian yeast esters, and no alcohol flavor. And incredible creamy mouthfeel. Wow!!
