20+ beers on tap. Classic and queer craft cocktails. One of a kind events. Let us be your hang-out spot.

Since 2015, we have been serving Denton the best local craft beer we could find. In 2025, we expanded into liquor with that same care. Check out our menu!
From chill kickbacks to wild weirdness, The Bearded Monk is your place! We have weekly hangouts, monthly slide show parties, and more. We can even host your next event.
In 2015, Ben Esely opened The Bearded Monk in the beautiful Denton Downtown Square, and it quickly became the spot for a drink. The Bearded Monk has won multiple Best of Denton Awards, but what we are really known for is the character and community that has been built between these walls. And of course the kick ass drinks we serve!

Our Team: Bo, Becca, Riley, Byron, and Ben.
