Description

Hopmonster beers characterise the ‘alter ego’ of Mark (George’s Brewery) and are therefore more hop forward and aggressive on the pallet. Which compliment the more traditional styles found in the George’s range.

Hopmonster was brought about by us knowing that we wanted to experiment with ingredients and hops to try and produce more funky ales than most drinkers would expect in their glass of traditional beer.

Half of gravity from the cellar in my local. Good pour and a proper brown ale with a taste of oak barrels and a bit of farmyard. Just gorgeous in the shade of a tree in the pub garden. Didn't get the other flavours.
