Notes

SRC: https://www.homebrewersassociation.org/homebrew-recipe/new-glarus-brewing-belgian-red-ale/

Mash grains at 156° F (69° C) for one hour. Sparge and lauter to collect 4.5 gallons (17 L). Add hops and boil one hour. Chill 4 gallons (15 L) wort to fermentation temperature, pitch yeast and ferment at 65° F (18.3° C).

When terminal gravity has been reached, rack aproximately 4 gallons (15 L) finished beer onto 1 gallon (3.79 L) cherry juice. Allow secondary fermentation to commence at 65° F for one week or until finished. Chill to 32-35° F (0-1.6° C) if possible and lager for four to six weeks. Add oak chips during the last week, if using, but monitor the beer closely…you don’t want too much oak flavor to come through. Bottle in heavy Champagne-style 750 mL bottles with 0.75 cup corn sugar per 5-gallon batch, or keg with moderate to high carbonation.
