A wit that is well on its way.
Laughing Monk has high aspirations in, what is for me, the high-holy Belgian tradition.
Irreverent Wit has a yeast that produces sufficient foam, some tropical fruit aromatics and a soft mouth. Spices are present but not prominent. Tastes are balanced and its citrus is refreshing.
I would have Irreverent Wit again. In fact at this moment, I wish I had bought two. Thanks, Brothers !
I'm glad to see you are recovering from lockdown.

10/26/25 Drank again four years later and Irreverent has not improved as I had hoped. This time on tap. I've reduced Look and Feel by .25 each. An OK pairing with Mexican food keeps Overall at the original rating.

Yellow body. Lots of carbonation. Aroma of floral hops and lemon, orange peel, and spice. Fruity. Taste is slightly sweet with a honey finish. Some feeling of grainy malts. Delicate and nice.

A very good beer. It’s a bit harsh in the intake, but warm in the consumption. I was expecting yet another beer barreled wine, but instead it is a brisk walk through the park.

Faint notes...couldn't pick up any discernible aromatics on this one. This is a well-balanced and easy drinking wheat ale. Faint honey notes on the swallow..crushable.
