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.

It’s ok sour. If you know me I’m biased to rate sour beer low so...

Too raspberry forward. If you want a fruity Belgian, not a bad choice.

It's been a while since I've had a fruit beer. This one a nice red color with a pink head. The aroma is strong with fruity raspberry and a bit of funky yeast. The flavor is extremely tart and fruity wrapped up with a nice alcohol burn.

Very sweet. Lots of raspberry. Finish is clean though. Good brew. Not my fave though

Fruit beers are not my favorite, however, wanted to try this one being Founders. A good beer, but not something I would drink again.

Raspberry is very strong. Drinks like a soda. Nice effervescence. Too sweet.

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.
