American craft beer number 272 comes all the way from Arizona in the shape of Old Monkeyshine brewed up by Nimbus Brewing Company. After the onslaught of IPAs that I have had recently, I am trying to clean my senses so that they can recoup their freshness in appreciating said IPAs.
Old Monkeyshine has been in the cellar for about a year, aging. The beer pours a deep brown with an inch of foam that leaves little to no lacing behind. Aroma and taste are similar: dark fruits are strong and mildly, at times, dominate the beer. Kept my interest enough to want to try some of their other brews. Enjoy!
Aroma: 7 (25%), Taste: 8 (25%), Look: 9 (15%), Drinkability: 8 (35%), Overall: 7.9
Useless Fact: The Washington Monument sinks 6 inches every year.
