Belgian Ale | 5 Gallon Beer Recipe Kit | All-Grain

    Description

    • Belgian Ale will give you a full roundup of phenolic, fruity, clove, plum, and banana flavors
    • Includes Perle and Saaz hops
    • Estimated ABV: 5%
    • Estimated IBUs: 32
    • Makes 5 gallons of finished beer

    Belgian ales are really about creating a simple yet elegant malt base upon which the unique Belgian yeast strains can create their wonderful, complex flavors. This Belgian Ale is their equivalent of our pale ale in alcoholic strength and body. The difference is that the hops are very subdued and only complimentary where as in many American beers hops can create a majority of the flavor profile. One is not better than the other just different, and we love diversity in beer.

    Terms used to describe Belgian Ales include phenolic, fruity, with the occasional clove, plum, and banana flavors coming through. Sometimes you just have to try one to understand. In the Dubble and Triple you will have some higher alcohol flavors coming through. This version is less alcoholic and highly drinkable.

    Any of the four Belgian yeast strains that we carry from Whitelabs could be used in any of the Belgian recipes. They are all excellent in their own right. The malt extract for this kit is made entirely from our German Pilsner Malt, giving it authentic European flavor. We use turbinado sugar to help up the alcohol and dry out the beer during fermentation.

    • Makes 5 gallons
    • Estimated Original Gravity: 1.049-53
    • SRM (Color Range): 4 
    • IBUs: 32
    • Estimated Alcohol Percentage: 5%

    Our recipe kits DO NOT include grain bags, yeast or priming sugar. To find our yeast recommendations, choose your preferred kit option above and then select the drop-down menu under “Yeast Options”.  For more info, click on the recommended yeast(s) below in the “You Might Also Need” section below. All grains will come milled, unless you select unmilled base malts.
