Monkish (November 2017)

You'll be fine. But, make sure to visit some other local fair too. Smog City, Scholb, etc. Good ramen in Mitsuwa marketplace too.

 

thanks everyone. it was an easy trip. only about 10-20 people there. got to try everything they had and get growlers. wish i would have had time to make it to some of the other places but i did try some Smog City.

 

Their taproom isn't huge, but 'smallest brewery ever' is quite an exaggeration, no?

 

Said smallest brewery I've ever been to, not smallest brewery ever. I'm sure there are smaller, just the smallest one that I've personally seen.

 

ive been to every brewery ever and its definitely the smallest

 

how was batch 2 of coffee cart tasting? with lactose

 

Wrong. Try Pure, looks like my garage.

 

try other half (not sure if theyve expanded but it looked like a closet)

 

We talking brewery or entire establishment? Because HPB I think is literally in someone's closet/shed.

If we were going smallest overall, Cellarmaker is pretty damn small.

 

Wasn't HPB's main fermentor in one of the shower stalls?

 

Homage has a pretty small tasting room and brewery footprint

 

Just a little bit left of the shower...

 

.....don't drop the yeast cake?

 

i thought it was fantastic

 

This is tasting pretty sweet at just about two weeks old.

Cheers,

 

Just got two fills of that. On a Belgian note I heard Seme Della Vita is tasting really well. This batch has more vanilla from previous batches.

 

I had a pour while waiting, it's really good, IMHO,the vanilla kind of hides that wonderful pistachio note I loved on the last batch, but for a 9.8% tripel it's insanely drinkable.

Cheers

 

Monkish has been killing it with the growler game ! So many great beers on for fills and now they drop Xylophone Tones, and for you haters, there is NO Galaxy in this one !

Cheers,

 

Holy crap, Planets Gotta Roll is the truth. Sipping on a glass right now. This is a perfect beer, absolutely flawless. 100/100.
