Weyerbacher Merry Monks Ale
From Weyerbacher – Merry Monks’ is a Belgian style Abby Tripel. To be true to the style, Merry Monks’ Ale is bottle conditioned. This means we add a bit of sugar and yeast just prior to bottling. This imparts a special effervescence to the beer, a creamier carbonation, and also extends the shelf life.
Weyerbacher Brewing – Merry Monk’s Ale – 12 oz. bottle poured into a goblet. 9.3% abv. Purchased at Monster Beverage – Glassboro, NJ
Appearance: Pours a deep yellow gold with an amber tint to it. The body is fairly cloudy, and has a luxurious head that subsides to a 1/4 inch cap of froth.
Brewing something people should know about?
Since 2007, The Full Pint has been where craft beer fans get their news. Breweries and beer brands can reach them too.
Aroma: Fruit spicy yeast, spicy hops, and honestly, a touch of lysol.
Taste: Fruity spicy yeast, big spicy hops, fruit cocktail in light syrup, light candi sugar.
Mouthfeel: Medium to high prickly carbonation, syrupy.
Overall: Reminds me of your typical rendition of a Belgian Golden Ale, but perhaps a tad more fruity.
