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.

So glad I finally found this stuff. Amazing. Had a shit experience at the Founder’s brewery a few years ago and had written them off because of it, but this almost makes up for it…

Has true fresh raspberry flavor, not somebody's idea of what raspberries taste like. Taste is consistent regardless of temperature, and the relatively high ABV is not apparent. A lot of tasty sediment in the bottom of a bottle, so make sure you get it.

Strong aroma of raspberries. Sweet but not cloying; strong raspberry taste. Wildish, rustic finish that is attractive and goes well with the fruit flavor. Don't usually care for sweet beers but this makes an interesting dessert beer.

Shitload of raspberries. Fruity sourness with a delicate tart. Nice.

Tart and fruity. Raspberry with a little lingering sourness. Not much hoppy, this one is all about the fruit. I always love raspberry beers so I liked this one quite a lot

Primarily a fruit beer with a Belgian finish. Sweet and fruity with dry, semi-tart finish. Full body.
