Dark Side of The Moob
Northern Monk Brew Co.

Collaboration with Wylam

Ticking away the moments that make up the Moob day, fritter and waste the hops in an offhand way, kicking around with a can in your hand in your hometown waiting for someone or something to show you the way.

For the past four years we've been celebrating 'moobs' with our friends at Wylam brewery. Whether it was a global pandemic, environmental disasters or ongoing challenges around systemic racial injustice, 2020 was truly the year the universe showed the dark side of it's moob. As businesses we've done what we can where we can to be a force for good, here we decided we'd do what we do best, make a big bold beer and dry hop it to hell.

And then one day you find four years have passed behind you. No one told you when to run we ramped the big hop gun.

For this year’s celebration of the humble moob, we’ve gone to the dark side. The series has always showcased Aussie hops, so we’ve led with the punchy combo of Galaxy and Vic Secret, and then backed it up with some headline US varieties like Sabro and Mosaic. This is a silky dark brew, lightly roasty with dark chocolate aromas, but brimming with tropical flavours and a pithy finish.
