Your Label Peelers Rustic Red Ale Original Beer Kit never sits on a shelf. Your grains are crushed to order. Your ingredients are packed fresh and you don't pay for a flashy box. It's all about providing you with the freshest ingredients for you to make your best beer.
Rustic Red Ale Beer Kit - All Grain is your gateway to crafting a beer with a deep amber hue and a rich, malty flavor profile that dances with notes of caramel and a slight nuttiness. This kit is perfect for you if you appreciate a moderate hop bitterness that balances beautifully with the malt. You’ll start your brewing journey with 7 lbs of Pale Malt (2-Row), which lays the foundation for that classic ale taste. The specialty grains, including 1 lb of Bonlander Munich Malt and a blend of Caramel/Crystal Malts at 40L and 120L, infuse your brew with layers of caramel sweetness and a touch of roasted complexity.
As you boil, 0.5 oz of Magnum Hops add a robust bitterness at the 60-minute mark, while 1 oz of Willamette Hops at 15 minutes before the end of the boil introduce a subtle, earthy aroma that complements the malt backbone. The fermentation process is guided by a packet of Safale US-05 Ale Yeast, ensuring a clean, crisp finish that highlights the beer's intricate flavors. With this kit, you’ll enjoy the satisfaction of creating a Rustic Red Ale that’s as rewarding to brew as it is to savor. Whether you're a seasoned homebrewer or just starting out, this kit provides everything you need to craft a beer that’s rich in character and flavor.
