De Proefbrouwerij Brewery Monstre Rouge Imperial Flanders Red Ale

Monstre Rouge is loosely based off Terrapin's "Big Hoppy Monster" recipe with a little of Spike's favorite ingredient (Rye Malt) thrown in for good measure. Fermented with one of Dirk's coveted yeast strains (Brettanomyces) and aged ontoasted American oak, this beer is tart, sour, sweet, hoppy and woody all wrapped in a beautiful red color. Brewed with a copius amount of crystal malts ranging in color from 20-75 lovibond as well as Munich and Rye, the Monstre Rouge is not your ordinary Flanders Red. American hops impart hints of citrus and pine complementing the complex malt and yeast flavors.
