Our Grand Cru is not so much a style, as it is a designation for a very special Barrel of Monks beer. Every year we create a completely new recipe to explore the depth of flavor of Belgian ales understanding that this particular beer may never be made again. This year’s Grand Cru is a love letter to the great Golden Strong Ales of Belgium. With a big, rich nose of caramel, orange marmalade and vanilla, it finishes with a mouthful of zesty phenolic spices. This bold and complex ale will demand your attention and contemplation as new flavors unfold in every sip. Drink this now or cellar to see your patience rewarded.
