Biere de Garde - All Grain (Advanced) KIT577
The "Original Gatoraid", Biere de Garde was said to give the French and Belgian farmer a much needed boost of energy during the day, due to the low alcohol and relativly high residual sugar content. Our version has a bit more malt than tradition dictats, but we hink you will find this beer highly drinkable. The malt is the focus of this style of beer, with a slight toasty nose from the Munich. A yeasty character is not uncommon, and is acheived by an extended period of contact with the yeast bed - some commercial breweries go for up to six weeks! This should be fermented at 64F.
Our recipe kits DO NOT
include grain bags or yeast. The
recommended yeast(s) can be found
