In this beer blog, we are going to get into another brew from Petoskey Brewing. It is their flagship beer, which is Horny Monk. If you read my earlier beer blog posts on their beers, you know the history of this Michigan base craft brewery. If you have not, please, read them to get to know this Midwest craft brewery. Let us get into this beer.
It has a clear amber to light brown color with a white constant head. The aroma has a slight malty notes. The taste has a sweet Belgium malty notes with a dry slight nutty aftertaste. It is extremely drinkable beer.
Here is a description from their website (www.petoskeybrewing.com):
A deep reddish, malty, and complex Belgian style ale. Six different types of malted barley, Belgian candied syrup and Belgian yeast are combined to produce a very smooth, complex and slightly sweet ale.
6.9% ABV, 20 IBU

In the end, I can see why so many people love this beer and drink a ton of it. It is smooth and nice drinkable beer. To me, this does not seem like Abbey Dubbel. It is more like a Belgian single with a ton of malt base. This is a great beer either way. I am not a brewer just a guy that loves beer and studies it. It does not has alcohol burn like other Belgium Abbey Dubbel. It is light body. It is like a session Abbey. I love this beer. I highly recommend this beer. Go get some! Drink it! Enjoy it! Metal it! \m/
Cheers!
