This year’s release of Santa’s Pet Monkey marked the first time Monkey Paw Brewing Company has ever bottled a beer, which was released alongside Thank You! 5th Anniversary Ale in late November.
Sadly, its release also coincided with the shocking news that Cosimo Sorrentino would be leaving his position of head brewer at both Monkey Paw and South Park Brewing Co. One sip of this beer was a quick reminder as to how much Cosimo and his creative recipes will be sorely missed in San Diego.
