Firestone Walker Stickee Monkee 2016
Barrel-Aged Central Coast Quad
Brewed with Belgian candi sugar and aged in a selection of fine
bourbon barrels, Stickee Monkee trailblazes its own category as a
“Central Coast Quad.” The name Stickee Monkee is a nod to the Central
Coast’s native Sticky Monkey flower, as well as a shout‐out to the
Belgian monks who pioneered the Quad style.
It has been said that the only constant is change and the same is
true for barrel-aged beers. Cut from a similar recipe, this barrel-aged
Quad evolves and shows a different face each year; a result of time
spent aging in the barrel. Turbinado brown sugar from Mexico adds
wonderful molasses flavors that are reminiscent of Belgian candi sugar.
It has a full body and lush texture with barrel expression all over;
toasted oak, coconut, leather and rich cigar tobacco.
