Monkish Brewing

A Pale Ale and IPA, but yeah this line..

 

Looks like I'm going to be bypassing Monkish and going straight to Beachwood on my way to the Weenie Roast

 

Whatever Monkish paid OH was probably a bargain with these kinds of turn out. Still time for more breweries to jump on this gravy train and make everyone happy! Except Catchy.

 

They're out of wrist bands, if people don't max more will get beer.

 

Meanwhile they still have bottles of Vellichor available.

 

Soooooooo good. My buddy was going to go but didn't due to the line madness. I said "grab me another Vellichor!"

 

both IPA's tasting pretty good... skipped the line madness and waited like 5 min to get our pours

 

Smart man

 

Shit lords....

 

There was a dude close to the front of the line who posted on IG saying he wasn't maxing out, but was offering the remaining slots if the taker would buy him a 4-pack of the IPA. Craft beer in 2016...

 

Got there around 130 and they were close to running out of cans. Waited 15 minutes and limit 2 at that point. Looks like this one lasted a tad longer than the previous releases.

 

I figured if you've had one #Juicy #Hazy #StraightJuice IPA with a #BossPour you've had them all. Guess I'm wrong.

 

The session is suprisingly amazing. Juicier than the IPA. Really tropical.

There were a ton of people with coolers that drank in line. You just cant stand in line with a pour from the taproom.

 

Monkish IPAs are better the OH imo....

 

...not

Monkish has, in my opinion, hit the the in between for OH and Tree house.

They've not only made beer on par with these two, but arguably above them as you can clearly see by the 300+ people standing in line today just to get the chance to grab some cans.

I am not in the type to hype up an IPA as it is not in favor for me against or for. However, these IPAs are phenomenal and hit the mark in all aspects.

Monkish is killing it and I cannot wait to see what their rotation of regular cans are.

 

Long lines aren't indicative of superior quality. Folks line up for Pink's Hot Dogs and Tito's Tacos everyday, but that doesn't mean they're the best around. So far, Monkish is the only local brewery (that I know of) that's taken at stab at the Northeast approach, which is the current hyped trend in IPAs. I would assert that the long lines indicate demand more than anything else.
