Monkish Brewing (2019)

Got a friend near Compton who said she would go get cans for me. Where can I see if they are sold out or not?

 

on their IG page, sold out late last night

 

They update the status of sales on instagram and facebook

 

Only once (I think) have cans lasted until the next day. Cans typically sell out within 3 hours from the release.

 

Many thanks guys!

 

dont forget twitter

 

twitter is good for line updates and cases left as well

 

No reason to follow any other social media other than Twitter for releases. Case and line counts every 20 minutes or so. IG and FB don't give those counts.

 

Damn, really bummed I missed out on this. If anyone has a spare can....

 

First monkish beer in a while.
Flip Fly Flows

Perfection when it comes to Galaxy & Nelson Sauvin. Very low carbonation but it works here.

 

lol, I wanted more of the pils....

 

Haven't been to Monkish in a minute, but I'm hoping that pilsner stays on fills for about a week. That will be awesome for camping. I will be taking multiple growlers of it with me.

 

Heart is Hollow is great. Pleasantly surprised by this pils.

 

Riri Waka is great. Curious if anyone else has tried it? Never heard of Riwaka hops before, but I am a fan.

 

Any tasting notes?

Is Riwaka maybe a new Citra? Or Citra adjacent?

 

It tastes just as you would expect a Southern Hemisphere hop to taste like, strongly resembling a mesh between Galaxy and Nelson. It is quite good imo, with flavors of lemon, green grapes, white wine, black pepper, and bubble gum being detectible. Also has an underlying earthiness to it, contrasting with some of the fruit flavor. I consider Nelson and Galaxy to be some of my favorite hops, and I am really enjoying the flavor Riwaka brings. Hope that helps.

 

Decided to try the first can of Tinkerbell Beats

Very tropical and pineapple-forward with an underlying sweetness throughout. Grassy hoppy profile at the finish which rounds out the flavor. Booze well hidden. Overall yet another enjoyable Monkish double. I think even a couple more days in the can will benefit this beer.

This may/may-not be helpful but I found it interesting.

 

Taking one for the team. This is really approachable even on day one. I love this new recipe and I love that Henry is using El Dorado in it. Floral and juicy AF. This is going to get very special soon.

Cheers,

 

Good seeing you Bud. I think it’s a Sunday triple kinda day haha
