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.

Interesting twist on a Belgian. Huge fruit from the raspberries. Slight sourness and tart. Good job.

Zoete fruitbom. Kriek bier maar dan met frambozen! Zoet, sterk zonder dat je het doorhebt, heel licht fris fruitzuurtje, en plakkend. Verwarmend mondgevoel.

Better than I was expecting, sure it’s fruity but not sour or too sugary, fairly smooth but I wouldn’t have another one

Catch up - not as good as I had hoped for as expectations and others’ reviews had me hyped. But overall quite drinkable, solid tang and fruitiness with undertones of floral flavors and Belgiany kick at the end

Hard to compare to anything else. Very tasty, a bit tart but not at all like a sour.

Wonderful raspberry sour. A little too sweet for me, but a perfectly acceptable price to pay for the deep raspberry color and flavor. Good carbonation.

Tsja, je wil toch zoveel als mogelijk van Founders proberen. Dit is een sterk fruitbier van 9,2% dus een standaard op zich. Veel framboos met het bijbehorende fris zure.

It's been a while since having this one. Seem to remember more raspberry and less yeast esters. Had it rated as a 4.5, but you have been demoted to a 3.75

Verrassend vol fruitbier. Zonder dat die overtreffende trap zoet is, heb je wel volle smaak te pakken

Wow, very sweet and very raspberry, but not in my mind a Belgian. Good to split three ways…

Nice cherry flavours, decent tartness. Difficult to believe this is over 9%, alcohol well hidden. Then again, what's the sense to brew that strong kriek style beer? What extra high alcohol percent brings compared to normal belgian kriek 4-6%?
