Foggier Window from Monkish. A DDH DIPA clocking in at 8.1%. Thick yellow haze with mango nectar accents. Aromas of gooseberry, pinot grigio, orange peel, pineapple, spruce tip, and peppercorn. Taste follows with additional layers of mixed berries, tropical fruit, and kiwi. Texture is soft & creamy up front, and slightly chalky & bitter on the finish. Another well-executed beer from Monkish.

Sweet, white wine grape, tropical hoppy, and orange citrus aromatics on this one! Taste follows exactly! This is very well-balanced between the different hop profiles...finishes with a nice orange/grapefruit citrus bitterness. This has really good depth and a juicy mouthfeel. This is great!

Never really thought I'd get to try a Monkish beer, especially one with a reputation as this. This was pure mango juice. Soft as a cloud.

look: 4 | smell: 4.25 | taste: 4.75 | feel: 5 | overall: 4.75
Opaque orange whiteish color with a thick head with decent retention.
Wonderful tropical aroma with notes of mango, pineapple, peaches, melon and oats.
Flavor with notes of peaches, mango, pine resin, passion fruit, hop powder, melon, grapefruit, white pepper, ginger and oats. Dry and bitter aftertaste.
Bordering full smooth body. Alcohol of 8.1% is absent.
I am in heaven, this is an outstanding DIPA, even after previously drinking some top-level brews. Tropical, green, citrusy, white, dank and bitter! I like the fact that this has a bit more hop character than the average NEIPA. Some still has to fill this gap between the kick ass IPAs and the juicy guys.

look: 4 | smell: 4 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 4
Appearance: Arrives cloudy and goldenstraw colored with a one finger head; a shard or two of lacing
Smell: Pineapple, passionfruit, guava, lychee, lime and grapefruit tones; somewhat grassy and herbal
Taste: Tropical flavors forward, with the pineapple, guava and lychee making an appearance; through the middle, pithy grapefruit bitterness emerges along with passionfruit and lime, producing a rather bitter finish
Mouthfeel: Medium body with moderate to high carbonation
Overall: Elements of both NE and West Coast in this solid IPA

Canned 1/19, about a week and a half ago.
A: Pours like orange juice—an impenetrably hazy medium orange with a cap of bright white head. Excellent retention and generous swaths of lacing.
S: Bright hop aromatics of mango, pink grapefruit, and guava. Medium-light background honied malt sweetness and dried flowers.
T: Dense, thick mango juice, with light floral background providing some complexity. Moderate sweetness accentuates the juice aspect.
M: Medium-full body, chewy and fairly creamy, with medium-light, tingly, carbonation.
O: Another superb DIPA from Monkish that ticks all the NE IPA boxes.

3.07/5 rDev -32.2%
look: 2.75 | smell: 3.25 | taste: 3 | feel: 3.25 | overall: 3
On-draught at Monkish - a brewery I haven't been to since 5 years ago, when they were adamant about only brewing Belgian ales...so much for that.
$9 for 12oz.
Looks like pulpy stale juice after pouring, lacking much vibrance or life. No head at all. Looks a bit drab...I eye this the way I eye most nightclub drinks, wondering why I paid so much for so little, and fearing it won't taste all that special.
AROMA: Vague fruit juice. Pulp. Mango. Passion fruit. Citrus. Generally appealing, but it seems like hop pungency and bitterness are taking a backseat to the India Odwalla Ale fruit juice aromatics. Pale malts, probably some wheat malt, 2-row.
TASTE: Yup...this is an India Odwalla Ale. Lacks any hop pungency at all and fails to deliver in terms of depth of flavour. Mango, fruit creamsicle, citrus, pulp, orange juice, Odwalla.
Lacks intricacy or subtlety. It's more alcoholic juice than beer proper.
TEXTURE: Creamy, soft, smooth, wet, acidic. Not too thick in spite of its pulpiness. Refreshing. Medium-bodied.
OVERALL: It boggles my mind this is currently in the California Top Beers list... it's tired India Odwalla Ale fare that I'd maybe pay $10 per sixer for. I've had beers in this Johnny come lately substyle with far more hop pungency and depth...its drinkability is remarkable but that's about it. If your view isn't from the hype train, you'll see clearly that this is one naked ass emperor. Still, it's likeable and enjoyable so long as you don't mind a purported imperial IPA with less hop pungency than Sierra Nevada Pale Ale. It's only a matter of time until breweries start pouring sunny delight in the mash...

It looks absolutely divine in the glass. Glowing orange cloudy yellow. Tropical fruit with a dank back end. Taste follows the nose and is somewhat dry with a dank back end. A touch too dank and bitter for my taste. It feels somewhat heavy. Monkish definitely makes good juice bombs but after having a few different ones, I can’t help but feel they are a tad too dank and a touch too bitter. A west coast style New England ipa.

Canned on 1/03/17, ‘Year of the Fog’.
Pours a creamy pale yellow, a familiar color for those who have had anything from the Foggy series. Hardly any lace, with a nice lace of frothy white foam.
The aromas here are a combination of stone fruit, melon, and pineapple. Slightly tropical, but not as in your face as many other juice bombs of the same style.
A perfect melding of hop varieties here. More stone fruit, hints of passion fruit, and a pretty dry finish. Honestly a lot of similar qualities to a dry white wine.
Smooth, creamy, medium carb and medium body.
A true a Monkish classic.

Made the stop at Monkish before a trip to Manhattan Beach for Thanksgiving. I was 23rd in line, but it actually moved pretty quickly. Picked up this, Xylophone Tones and a Tripel for my father-in-law. Board called it a “Double-dry hopped DIPA with Citra, Nelson and Galaxy.” I called it a New England Style with Citra, Nelson and Galaxy. Was really looking forward to it.
Poured a pale hazy color with one finger of fizzy off-white head. Average lacing. Decent retention. (Sight - 3.50)
Smelled Nelson, Galaxy and Citra in order. Also floral, peach blossom, stone fruit, melon, guava, mandarin, cantaloupe and dry pineapple. (Smell - 4.50)
Wow on the taste. So damn good. Nelson, Galaxy and Citra blended perfectly. Also apricot, peach blossom, stone fruit, guava, melon and passion fruit. (Taste - 4.75)
Medium body. Creamy texture. Average carbonation. Long, juicy finish. (Feel - 4.50)
This was world-class. Probably the best New England Style beer I’ve tried. (EDIT: Statistically it was). (Overall - 4.50)

Canned 9/21/17; drank 9/28/17 @ the Yarchives.
Opaque dull yellow/orange appearance.
A rough pour yielded a small, noisy off-white head which quickly dissipated; no lace.
Pine, fresh ganja, grapefruit & dry grass notes in the nose.
Medium thick mouthfeel.
Dry grapefruit & ganja flavors up front; dry grass & dry pine notes on the finish.
Dry, dry, dry; not really juicy at all. Drinkable, I suppose, but the worst of the fog series unquestionably.

Beautiful beer. I felt like the most recent release of Foggy was an out of the park, walk off homer. Foggier is a walk-off double (no pun intended.) It's very close to being a straight up 5 but lacking some complexity. Despite that, a phenomenal offering from Lord Henry!

First glance this is a beautiful hazy beer with next to no seidment. Poured with minimal head. Smell of tangerine and pineapple with subtle dankiness. Taste was wow. Incredibly balanced juice bomb with perfect bitterness. Feel was very soft with a crisp finish. The slight dry bitterness on the backend left you longing for more.

Looks almost like a glass of pineapple juice on the pour. Intense fruit smells of mango and pineapple. That is out of this world juicy with a dry finish that makes you want more. This was everything I hoped my first monkish beer would be!!

Sweet honey peach fruit pineapple taste. Super fruity sweet. (I can't smell today.) Hazy and yellow/cloudy/straw. Low carbonation, super pillowy. Lovely, soft mouthfeel.

4.4/5 rDev -2.9%

Really hazy peach color with off-white head. Aroma is fruity with pineapple and peach notes, also some dank hops. Taste is sweet and fruity at first, some light nutty malt character, slightly astringent citrus, light bitterness on the finish. Full bodied, medium carbonation. Overall it's a really good DIPA with great hop flavors.
