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.

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%?

So so so good. Big natural raspberry taste mixed with a natural Belgian yeast (much like a Belgian blonde or maybe even a tripel). So good!

A fermented beer that is sweet yet tart. Definitely taste the berries and leaves an aftertaste that isn't for me.

The aroma hits you right off. Very fruity and a little tart or sour, I can't decide. Very drinkable. Love it.

I took the picture earlier but let it warm on the counter! It’s almost halftime of the Bucks game so I thought I better drink it. Sweet with an aroma and strong raspberry taste, somewhat tart in the finish. Pairs well with cheese they say, so....

It's probably a little bit overloaded with raspberries, which isn't bad though. Sweet, tart, syrupy. I'd prefer it less sweet and more tart.

Excellently balanced. Tastes much lighter than it actually is. Fruity like actual raspberries.
