Assertive malt flavor with a liberal dosing of hops brewed to the high end of the style. Not that we get too worried about style but it will be close to 6% a.b.v. when it's finished. It's not a sour beer although we are kicking around plans for one. The big problem isn't producing one as much as packaging it. Once we put a sour beer in a keg, sour beer is all that will come out of that keg. When we finally make the leap we may have to bottle half or more of the run. We do have a handful of bunged kegs we could reserve for that purpose. We were looking more for an old world flavor in the porter.

Special thanks to Kevin, Karen and crew for the unique and entertaining food paired masterfully with the beer. I had the Flat Bread with Serrano ham, Quince, and Manchego cheese. The nutty sweetness of the Quince with the salty spice of the ham and the rich creamy cheese was a perfect complement to the bold malty sweetness of the beer. The Brothers also shared the crispy bone marrow on toasted bread. While this dish may seem strange bone marrow is a rich source of nutrients and very tasty. Wild dogs wouldn’t have developed those huge jaw muscles to crack open bones if there wasn’t something good in there. The sweet fatty goodness of the marrow stood up well to the bold flavors of the beer. The beer was served in long stemmed wine glasses which allowed it to warm to a good drinking temperature in short order. This beer is best drank around 50 degrees. Cold it’s just too easy to drink and you’ll miss much of the complex flavor that emerges as it warms. That, and the fact it’s quite strong and you might be tempted to drink it too fast when cold. The place was packed shortly after the party began and was standing room only for about an hour and half. A short beer line formed right away and the entire keg was consumed before 9 p.m. Look for another event heralding the release of the Tripel. I suggested spicy spring rolls might pair up with the hoppy dryness of the Tripel. We’ll see what Kevin comes up with. Thanks to everyone that attended the release party.

He feed them, gave them a warm place to stay for the night and after he went to sleep, the robbed him blind then killed him. This beer is nourishment, warming, and if you dont watch out, it will knock you out! It clocks in at 10% ABV but seems no where near that strong. St. Meinrad is the patron saint of Hospitality.

Being the “elder monk” of the group I remember listening to “Freak Out” on my 8-Track player while driving around in my 69 Mustang. Frank discovered and produced many other slightly off center artists in addition to his own unique style. His honesty and blunt social commentary is sorely missing from today’s music.
