This Saturday, March 26, from 2 to 6 p.m., the brewery will host its first birthday party and is inviting everyone who wants to join in. This will not be a ticketed event, as the brewery will simply be open to the public and selling beers by the pour — offering many of the beers created throughout the previous year.

- Hazelnut Brown Ale

Barrel of Monks Brewery opened its doors on March 28, 2015, inside a two-story, 10,000-square-foot facility complete with tap tasting room, lounge area, meeting space, and a barrel-aging and bottling room. It's even equipped with a 20-barrel Newlands brewing system.
For a few lucky people (150 total, so check the Eventbrite page before it sells out), Barrel of Monks has decided to provide unlimited pours. For $50, a VIP gets access to five very special, limited tappings: Owen, Mocha 1801 Koffie Saison, Double Barrel QuandRum, J. Wakefield Brewing Dragon Fruit Passion Fruit, and Cigar City Brewing Hunahpu's Imperial Stout.
To soak up all those brews, TC Melts, Tucker Dukes, and Rolling Chefs will be onsite all day to serve some delicious grub for you.
I'll see you all there, and we'll clink our glasses to another monk-filled year.
Barrel of Monks Brewing is located at 1141 S. Rogers Cir., Suite 5, Boca Raton. Call 561-510-1253, or visit barrelofmonks.com.
