Merry Monks' Ale
Served cellar temperature in a tulip glass, poured from a 12 ounce bottle. This beer is crystal clear, golden-orange in color, with a soda-pop head. Poor head stability. Theres a pronounced fruit aroma, with a background of medicinal phenols. Its sweet smelling, with a little alcohol in there as well. The taste is peppery with a little tangy, spiciness. Alcohol warming is notable. The brew is not very malty, and neither is it yeastyId like to see a little more of these traits in the brew. Light in body for the style. Very low carbonation, and just a little slick on the tongue. I could take it or leave itit certainly wasnt inspiring.
