I have found this beer is best when drank while listening to the man himself, Thelonious Sphere Monk. Much like listening to Monk tunes, it leaves you with satisfied palate and puts you in uniquely delightful mood. And anyways what can be better than listening to Thelonious, and drinking good beer. Best when drank ’Round Midnight.

Jul 26, 2008 Pour was medium golden with a medium white head. Aroma was strong of alcohol, malt, fruit, and trappist spices. Smooth brew with a punch. Carbonation was full and well blended. alcohol was hidden a little bit more in the flavor. Good brew. Nice caramel notes in the finish. Would buy again.

Jul 26, 2008 pours a deep ruby with little head and little lacing. subtle aroma, but has malt, plum, raisin evident. decent flavor- nothing extraordinary, but sticks with the classic belgian strong points, along with an interesting note of pineapple. alcohol is clear in the finish, but still a very nice beer.

Jul 26, 2008 copper pour, little to no head. slight dark fruit, malt aromas. sweet caramel fruits, alcohol, pineapple, and caramel malt. a bit of a urnt flavor gives it a bit of harshness.

Jul 22, 2008 Poured a nice clear copper color with little to no head. Aroma was yeast malt and dark fruit, plums and cherries.
Flavor was interesting, almost like a slightly overcooked cherry cobbler, a little burned, a lot sweet, and a bit caramely. A lot going on here, and the 9% is well hidden.

Jul 21, 2008 Pours a beautiful rusty copper with a medium tan head that rings the glass. Very sweet caramelized pineapple nose with some Belgian yeast. The taste is also sweet and fruity at the beginning tasting like overripe cherries or plums, but takes on a more bread like abbey finish. Very smooth and creamy body with no hint of the 9% ABV. Pretty enjoyable, couldn’t help turn on some jazz while drinking!
