The Witty Monk has been un-capped, and it's everything is pretended to be. It's a crisp wheat beer, with a great citrus overtone. I've talked about this beer for a long time, I've wanted to make it, but I didn't know where to find it. Turns out, you can get it out of a kit. And it's great stuff. Honestly, this is going into my summer-stock list. There are a few beers I like to keep around and this is going to be one of them.
What's in the future for beers? I started two more batches this weekend, to be bottled in a few weeks. I'm turning my second batch of Sticky Wicket (it's an oatmeal stout - look through past news, and you can find it) and yet another batch of St. Patrick's Irish stout. If you like a good dark beer, this is the stuff. For my next trick, I'll be working on some witches brew - a light wheat beer with boysen berries in it. It will be my first venture into beer with actually adding fruit to the fermentation cycle. Should be intersting, and perhaps another great summer brew.
