    I too disagree. Shark Pants was a Belgian IPA with little hop character and didn't have any funk or brett to it at all. Bitter Monk is dry and funky as hell. Awesome beer.

    I'm completely obsessed with Bitter Monk, and I can't really think of anything that is bery similar... Rayon Vert is probably the best suggestion in terms of yeast profiles, but there is so much more going on that its hard to say that they are really alike.

    The closest thing I can think of is the Anchorage Galaxy IPA that just came out. The brett hasn't really come out yet, but a couple months in the cellar will fix that.

    that is why I said WWB Green, same yeast character, but with an elevated hoppiness, it still doesn't have the barrel aging though.
