Beers similar to Munken

Brown Ale·Denmark·5.2% ABV·One of 178 Brown Ales in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Munken's coffee and roasted character. A complex dark ale with a Belgian model, inspired by classic Belgian monastery beers. The nose shows roasted coffee, rye bread and roasted chestnuts, joined by fruity touches of orange and a hint of licorice. The taste is dry and slightly sour, first licorice powder, then English licorice, with a subtle finish of coffee. Orange peel goes into the brew.
