I first tried this beer in the Jailbreak Brewing taproom in Laurel, Maryland during a visit in 2015, but have not been able to get a can of this until recently. (To see the post for my thoughts on my visit back in 2015 - https://kosherbeers.blogspot.com/2015/01/sunday-night-suds-jailbreak-brewing-big.html).
The Feed the Monkey is not a typical American beer as the phenols evoke memories of true Hefeweizens. The clove/banana mixture hits you before the glass makes it to your face and stays with you to the very last sip. The flavors are not artificial and are derived wholly from the yeast and are complex. Like most Hefeweizens, this beer is not heavy and the alcohol content is low as well (5.6% abv).
If you have never tried a Hefeweizen I would recommend having this on its own in order to truly appreciate the flavors. But if you are looking to pair this, I would recommend pizza!
Jailbreak Brewing Feed the Monkey Hefeweizen is certified kosher by the Star-K and there is a Star-K on the can. For the experts take on this beer, please click here beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/34426/124627/.
As always, please remember to drink responsibly and to never waste good beer unless there is no designated driver.
