Brass Monkey
Brass Monkey
Also known as: Drunken Monkey (related S1 version)
Overview
Brass Monkey is an indica-dominant hybrid strain developed by CannaBeans Genetics in 2021, created by crossing Grease Monkey (from Exotic Genetix) with Berry Pie (GSC x Blueberry by Seed Junky Genetics & Cookies). This strain has established itself as one of CannaBeans' most flavorful and potent offerings over the past several years. The variety is characterized by its extreme resin production, making it highly suitable for extractions and hash-making. Brass Monkey exhibits a unique visual transformation during flowering, beginning to turn light purple around day 42 and progressively darkening until it becomes almost black by day 63. The strain produces average yields but compensates with outstanding quality and exceptional trichome production. Users report that the smoke has a distinctive quality that 'sticks in your nose' with a lasting pleasant aroma. The strain combines the gassy, diesel characteristics of its Grease Monkey parent with the sweet, fruity notes from the Berry Pie lineage.
