Right behind that, any of other North Coast beers including the lastest..
With the developing interest in Belgian abbey ales and the monasteries that brew them, it’s time to remind the world that here in the U.S., we have a Monk of our own. Jazz icon Thelonious Monk is the inspiration for North Coast Brewing’s new Belgian-style abbey ale called, appropriately enough, Brother Thelonious. The beer is being released in conjunction with the Thelonious Monk Institute of Jazz (
www.monkinstitute.org), and the brewery will make a contribution to the Institute for every case sold to support jazz education.
