Description
The Flying Monkeys Craft Brewery leads the Craft Beer Revolution in Ontario. Brewing radical Beers and creative Ales right on the waterfront in downtown Barrie since 2004, the Flying Monkeys was the first Ontario Craft Brewery to truly recognize the need to overthrow the conservative regime of macro-brews and timid small batch taste-a-likes and create a new Culture of Craft Brewing in our province.

Casting off the comfortable and respectable cloak of the Robert Simpson Brewing Company, and revealing our true selves as the Flying Monkeys late in 2008, we gave rise to the the collective creativity of our Brewery and committed our Brewhouse to the adventurous longings of the growing culture of Craft Beer Lovers in Ontario.

16oz can from my brother. Dark brown pour, one finger fluffy beige head. Chocolaty aroma, mostly cocoa powder and chocolate syrup. Taste is bit more restrained, chocolate, sweet, but also a bit dry. Lactose plays its part too, so it does end up with the whole chocolate milk vibe.

This amber lager poured a hazy deep orange colour with a creamy, fizzy, off white head. Nice lacing. Scents include tea, citrus, malt and dough. First swig was quite good with flavours of tea, hops and light malt most prominent. Finish is lightly bitter with tea flavours lingering.

I had to look up what terpenes were. Why? Because this beer has peach terpenes in it. Mild malt base, fairly sweet with very forward peach flavour (those terpenes apparently). Mild bitterness and a little hop burn in the finish, with notable sweetness and peach. The balance here is off. The hop bitterness makes a run to tilt things into alignment, but just a little too cloying. Interesting though. Can lcbo

A golden DIPA with a thick frothy lacing off white head. In aroma, sweet fruity biscuit malt with resinous floral hops, light fruity esters, light candy, pleasant. In mouth, a nice biscuit malt with resinous floral hops, papaya, mango, light alcohol warmth, very nice. On tap at Craft Beer Market Ottawa.
