Northern Monk Éternité is a vibrant Session Farmhouse IPA that marries the bright, hop-forward character of their flagship IPA with rustic complexity. The addition of spelt and rye creates a textured, grainy foundation with a signature peppery snap, further amplified by the Belgian Saison yeast. This yeast strain contributes distinctive black pepper phenols and succulent fleshy fruit esters, including notes of pear and apricot. These yeast-driven traits weave through a hop profile defined by fresh citrus zest and delicate floral aromatics. The result is a crisp, dry, and highly drinkable session ale that offers a sophisticated interplay of spicy grain and expressive fermentation.
Appearance.Pours a pale gold to light amber with a soft, persistent haze. Features a dense, frothy white head with excellent retention and significant lacing on the glass.
Aroma.Moderate to high intensity featuring a complex blend of citrus peel, lemon, and floral hop notes. The Belgian Saison yeast adds prominent black pepper spiciness and esters of ripe stone fruit and pear, while the rye provides a subtle, earthy, cracker-like malt backbone.
Taste.Initial citrus and floral hop flavors are immediately met by a rustic, grainy malt profile from the spelt and rye. The mid-palate reveals peppery phenols and soft fruit esters. Bitterness is moderate but firm, providing a clean, hop-forward balance. The finish is remarkably dry and crisp with a lingering hint of spice and citrus pith.
Mouthfeel.Medium-light body with a slightly creamy yet crisp texture from the alternative grains. High carbonation provides a lively, prickly sensation. Alcohol warmth is negligible, enhancing its sessionable character.
