BROTHER’S BIER
If you know Monkless, you know we’re not known for brewing small beers - that said, we wanted a clean sessionable beer to share as the warm summer months approached us. We were inspired by the Trappist tradition of the Belgian Single. Brother’s Bier is a SMaSH beer brewed from Pilsen malt and Sterling hops, and fermented to a nice dry finish with our traditional Trappist yeast strain. A late hop addition of Sterling adds a bit of spicy, citrusy hop aroma and flavor to the quintessential fruity-spicy yeast character of a classic Belgian Single.

REVERIE PILS
In Belgium, Pilsner beer is revered. It’s common for a local to simply raise a pinky finger to their barkeep, signaling their desire for a refreshing Pils. Belgian tradition demanded we dream one up for you! This beer is gold and bright as the sun, with a dense white cloud of foam, floating above. The light body of this beer, imagined with a delicate malt sweetness, will take you away. Float further to a bold and zesty noble hop finish that leaves you as quickly as it appeared. Raise a pinky finger if you like, and lift your head into the clouds, onward Reverie.

SHEPPLEKOFEGGAN
The hard-saying yet easy-drinking Shepplekofeggan was created as an ode to friendship. Pronounced “shêp-ul-kof-again”, it is named after four friends who love their lighter beers; it’s namesakes “Sheets-Epple-Intelkoffer-Duggan” inspired this refreshing Belgian Witbier, which is finished with fresh orange zest and coriander and packed full of citrusy flavor. It just begs for great friends to share it with, and is proof that all Belgian-style beers don’t have to be big in alcohol -- only big in flavor.

HAZY DAY IN BRUSSELS
Inspired by the historic Grand Place in the city of Brussels and their haze-filled days (with a nod, of course, to the New England Haze Craze), this beer is brimming with a juicy, tropical and citrusy hop profile while also delivering the flavors of one of our favorites, a classic Belgian Tripel. Brewed using a traditional Belgian brewing foundation, we started with Belgian Pilsen malt, followed by a classic Belgian Trappist yeast, then took a departure from the norm and double dry hopped this Belgian Tripel with a generous amount of Citra, El Dorado, and Mandarina Bavaria hops giving rise to our latest delicious creation.
