On Tap

While Belgian monks have brought us boldly flavored and high octane beers such as Tripels and Quadrupels, the beer that they are most likely drinking themselves is a Singel or Patersbeir. Like those monks, at Barrel of Monks you’ll likely see us enjoying this clean and refreshing beer regularly as there is always something to be done and staying on as even a keel as possible is key. It’s both the perfect beer to begin your quest into the world of Belgian Ales and an ideal choice after a long day of toil and trouble.

Charmingly tweaked from the Latin term Ab Aeterno which translates to “from eternity” or “since the beginning” depending on who you ask, Abbey Terno is our version of the abbey style Dubbel. This timeless brown beer makes liberal use of delicious Belgian candi sugar that adds notes of toffee, dried fruit, just a hint of chocolate and is dry and sessionable even at 7% ABV.

The quadrupel is the grandaddy of the Abbey style ales. Typically, they are dark, strong ales bursting with flavors such as dark fruit, chocolate and raisins and our Quadraphonic is no exception. This dense beer hides its 10.5% ABV well with a deep brown color and a long rich finish. The Quadraphonic is a beer designed for celebration and decadence.

Slightly bready with the bitter tang of orange peel and coriander spice

This beer was brewed in honor of our good friend Warren Sapp. A Florida native and NFL Hall of Famer played high school, college and most of his professional football career in the Sunshine State. He has been a loyal supporter of our brewery, and we collaborated with him to create this delicious libation. It is a Belgian-style blonde ale with lots of citrusy hops added to the whirlpool and then heavily dry-hopped. This creates a rich aroma and flavor profile withour overwhelming bitterness. Please come in a raise a glass with us to celebrate the distinguished career of #99, the QB Killa.

Fruit beers are best when they are done subtly. Blending fruit and beer require more the precision of a scalpel than the brute force of a chainsaw. The Guava in our Single in Havana adds just a touch of sweetness and tropical fruit to our crisp, dry Single in the Sun producing a well-balanced beer.

From a virtuoso piece of music performed by nimble dexterous fingers to show its performers’ abilities, Toccata describes poise, skill and technique. We believe that our Amber Ale shows off these same attributes. Expertly blending high quality German 2-Row barley and crystal malts gives this beer a brilliant color and lends notes of toasty bread and subtle fruit from the yeast. Harmony and balance are the key, letting all the flavors come together to create something greater than the sum of its parts.
