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.

Sweet! They got the raspberry correct. You get the taste of raspberry, but not overwhelming or artificial.

A risky buy that paid off. Loaded with raspberries, I thought this could be the “rosee” of beers...or off the charts fruity and sour. Was a bit sour but the Belgian ale and overall booziness saved it. Like drinking lightly sour port. Paired w hard cheese.

Thought it was going to be too sweet with the boat load of raspberries but was wrong.

Just the right amount of raspberry to add tartness and cut the bitter.

That’sa raspberry fruit beer alright. Sweet & fruity with a subtle Belgian blonde base. Malts & coriander spice on the finish. Tastes like it could be 5%, but at a sneaky 9.2% it’s incredibly smooth. Not my usual style but well done.
