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.

While I recognize that this beer is pretty high quality, I'm just not a big fan. It tastes like a strong wine, and I don't really like wine. There is an exceptionally powerful sour raspberry flavor to it, and it is just a bit too much for me!

2015 vintage. Mellowed out a bit over the years and is not overly sweet anymore.

Ruikt eerst naar cassis, daarna zoet rood bessen snoepgoed. Smaak heel zoet fruitig, gevolgd door bitter zuurtje dat het drinkbaar maakt.

Really sweet. Strong raspberry notes at the beginning. Crisp, fresh mouthfeel. Tart finish.

Makeuden ja happamuuden, imelyyden ja kirpeyden erikoinen liitto. Belge-hiiva tekee tästä vieläkin oudomman. Täynnä makua, vadelmaa riittää, mutta on tämä aika sekamelska.

Blushing indeed; een prachtig kleurtje en een zacht roze kraagje. Grenadine geur. Volle, relatief zoete, fruitige aandronk; framboos/kersen; neigt naar rosé bier. Afdronk echt wrang -droog en zurig. Wijnachtig zelfs. Hmmm?! I ain’t blushing by the taste

Was really hoping for more. Raspberry aroma and flavor, but fake tasting. No funk, not that sour, and way too sweet.
