El Monstruo del Norte is the third oak-aged collaboration between North Peak Brewing Company and Jolly Pumpkin Artisan Ales. We took North Peak’s Gnarl (Chestnut Amber Ale) and combined it with around 40% of La Roja (Sour Amber Ale) and then aged it for 4 months in oak before securing this beast in bottles.

This Wild Red Chestnut Ale is medium in body and boasts a beautiful copper-hue. Filled with roasty sweetness, blending caramel notes with subtle chestnut flavors, and finishing with a moderate bright citrus-like acidity.

One day, a government created weapons so powerful they decided the only way they could be safe was to destroy them.

This is the story of those weapons.

Cheers & Mahalo plenty!
