NOT YOUR USUAL HOMEBREW.
The fifth release of our Homebrew Heroes Patrons Projects series, working with amateur brewers to scale up their beers into a full-on Monk release.
We were blown away by the quality of entries into the Homebrew Heroes competition this time around. We asked people to send in their IPA brews, with the only stipulations being it must be under 8.4% and we banned the use of Mosaic and Citro hops.
It was a close-run thing, but in the end, a Hazy IPA featuring Nectaron, Nelson Sauvin, and Enigma hops came out on top.
We invited the winning homebrewers, Mike Anson, Geoff Nix and Doug Hayes from Ware in Hertfordshire, here to Monk to scale up the brew, using the same southern hemisphere hop varieties they used.
The hop combo will give you flavours and aromas of nectarine, pineapple, white grape, and gooseberry, with hints of red berry, passionfruit, and spice, wrapped up in a hazy juice bomb at 6.7%.
As part of Homebrew Heroes, we also open the label design to budding artists and from the hundreds of people who stepped forward, we commissioned Moonshake Design - the one-man illustration and design entity run by Julian Dicken, established in 2010, and based in Glasgow.
Julian delivered was a psychedelic tripped-out label, with an alien nod to Pink Floyd’s Wish You Were Here album cover. It has rapidly become one of our favourite labels.
