This \u003cstrong\u003eFlanders Red Ale recipe kit\u003c\/strong\u003e comes with every pre-measured ingredient you need to brew Martin's Flanders Red, a 5-gallon all-grain batch, from grain to glass.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFlanders Red comes from West Flanders in Belgium, where breweries like Rodenbach age it for a year or more in large oak vats. Brewers often call it the most wine-like of beers, and it earns the comparison: deep reddish brown, sharply sour, with cherry and balsamic notes and a hint of leather from the long maturation and the mixed cultures at work in the wood. The oak is central, adding tannin and a slow acetic edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA light touch of Tettnang is all the hopping the style needs, since the sourness and the barrel do the heavy lifting. This kit leaves room to add your own oak, which the traditional recipe ages on.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's In The Kit\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eYour Flanders Red Ale recipe kit includes everything below, portioned and ready to brew.
