Dominion’s Monk’s Rock The Mic (Pilsner Style)

Dominion Brewing and Dawson’s Liquors are collaborating on Monk Czech, a Czech Pilsner inspired Belgian-style Ale, set to release June 1.

Legend has it this Belgian style ale was first brewed in 1840 using black market malt smuggled out of Plzeň by monks. Recognizing those OGs, this hip-hop-inspired ale gives a head nod to risk-takers and dreamers.  This Brewer/Retailer collaboration utilized Saaz, Tradition, Motueka and Nelson Sauvin Hops and Pilsner Malt, for a crisp, summer beer that sneaks in at 5.2% ABV and 45 IBUs.

Style: Pilsner
Availability: 22oz bombers, Draft.
States: Delaware, Virginia, Maryland, Washington, D.C.
Arrival: June 1, 2013

If you go:

June 6th at Max’s Taphouse and June 20th at DC 9
