Commercial Description:
Brewed at Uinta's experimental Four+ Brewery. Monkshine gives a Belgian twist to the pale ale. Instead of being highly hopped, this beer gets its accent from spicy and fruity Belgian yeast. The complex aroma features notes of clove, honey and banana with malt undertones. The palate is smooth and malty with a touch of spicy sweetness.

Copper/orange pour with a thin, filmy white head. Aroma is sweet and sugary with some yeast and banana. Pretty active carbonation and a pleasant mouthfeel. More sweetness and candi sugars in the taste along with some woodsy malt notes. Finish isn’t great, lingering sweetness and not much else. I think this is an interesting brew. Amazing what a variety of flavors that yeast can impart into beer.

Rather basic Belgian with, as they say, banana and honey flavors. No new ground broken here, but this one might have a little more depth than the typical American attempt at the style.

Well aged bottle, best by date of 7-21-05. Pours a dark hazy gold with fair eggshell head and great lacing. Banana nose. Typical belgian yeast shows up in the flavor. Subtle hop finish. Quite enjoyable and suprising.

Bottle shared by robert at stateline... Light in color and taste...Flavor was pretty good considering it has such a low score. Taste was sweet, small touch of hops, carbonated, and very easy to drink. A beer I would buy again. Thanks robert for sharing.
