Abbey Monks’ Dark Ale

... More

a complex flavor profile that invites one more sip…and then another.

Monks’ Dark Ale pours with nice lacing and a lasting tan head that translates into a smooth, creamy mouthfeel, good carbonation but no alcohol warmth or astringency. The predominant aromas are hazelnut and chocolate with hints of raisins and stone fruits but lacking the buttery smell or flavor of other dark ales. Flavors include toasted hazelnuts, raisins, caramel malt and mild green apples. No phenols (compounds responsible for a medicinal or smoky aroma and/or after-taste) are evident. The subdued, yet present hops create a light, crisp, refreshing taste. The finish is dry with mild caramel and green apples and a slight roastiness.

While Monks’ Dark Ale may be brewed in the European tradition, its ingredients are all-American.

Monks’ Dark Ale nace por el deseo de los monjes de contar con una cerveza Dark Ale disponible todo el año y que sea agradable de tomar siempre. Para eso desarrollaron su propia receta entregándonos esta maravillosa cerveza signature, muy agradable al paladar.
