New Rotating Tap

Victory Golden Monkey
Belgian Triple 9.5% ABV
Victory Brewing Co., Downingtown, Pennsylvania. Head Brewer Bill Covaleski
Serving Size:  8oz. for $5.25, no Happy Hour or SIN.

A: This beer pours a clear golden hue with a slight tint of orange.  It has a lofty white head that recedes to a modest ring of foam and nice lacing on the glass.
S:  Aromas of spice and fruit dominate.  Lots of citrus with some banana meld with the caramel malts and ahealthy dose of hops.  (noble hops)
T:  Bananas, citrus, spice are most predominant, while caramel malts and bitter hops round out the flavor profile.  There is certainly some Belgian yeast flavors and a hint of alcohol on the finish.
M:  This is a medium bodied golden triple with great carbonation and a crisp, refreshing finish.
D:  This beer is a great drinking beer though it is a little high in alcohol though it is certainly a great food beer.
Food Pairing: Golden Monkey would serve well with Mussels, Roasted Cauliflower Salad, Camembert and Peach Preserves Grilled Cheese, Triple Decker Chicken Schnitzel Sandwich, and Veal Schnitzel.
