I have been looking for a good red ale. This brew is soo good! I made some tweaks to it to include flaked oats, delayed some of the hop additions, and this brew has always came out delicious. It has a great aroma, color and taste. It's well balanced def my fav kit here, I've bought this kit several times now.
Fermented with California Ale V yeast, and finished at 1.018 from 1.059. Flavor is very nice and I really like the color. Picture is prior to carbonation. Mashed with 8 gallons of water BIAB.
This is a great value kit. I used Belgian Strong Ale yeast off-recipe since the intended yeast did not arrive on time. I therefore cannot evaluate the intended result of this red ale, but it resulted in a pleasant easy drinking red Belgian ale with a hint of tartness. It has more residual sweetness than I expected, and is darker red than I had expected. I'd try this kit again using proper yeast to let the malts speak for themselves better.
It was easy to make. It is fermenting still, so hopefully it comes out really good.
Great beer, easy to brew
Popular with friends. Malty with a dry finish
This finished with a nice dark red color with the malt prominent. Slightly sweet with low hops bitterness. Fermentation started within 24 hours and was complete after about 3 days. Mine came out almost exactly as spec sheet. OG was 1.064 and FG 1.018. I will brew again.
I will brew this again-great hop flavor and nose. I like a hoppy beer but this is well balanced and not too overbearing on the hops.
My initial impression was that the bitterness overpowered the malt and there was a hop haze, but after 1 month in the keg the flavors really balanced out and the haze disappeared. I will be sorry when it's gone.
Huge flavor!! Sweetness and hoppiness are super balanced. 4th time making this recipe and thinking of making it my go-to house brew
first time brewing this beer, came out nice. Simple and easy to make.
This was my first beer in my keg. At first I didn't get the carbonation right...after I fixed that, it's perfect. Not super hoppy, just a good go-to brew.
This is a very solid, easy to drink amber. Great transition beer for the non-craft drinker. Will certainly brew again.
I've brewed this recipe 4 times now. Been to Pizza Port and loved their beers, so that's why we gave this a chance in the first place.I always have this beer to drink. It has excellent body, a GREAT ruby red color, and an upped hop profile that we enjoy. This beer is perfect to drink once carbed, but best after 3 months of conditioning. Overall, this is my go-to everyday beer.
good thing I am upgrading my brewery to do larger batches. As Curt C says, this one does not stay around long.
This is a real nice beer. I can always tell the good ones by how fast they disappear, and this beer went fast.Cheers!
I usually brew my own recipes but had to try this one out since I'm a red ale fan. Definitely a keeper!
