Looking at a Belgian Red Ale with WY1214
4.5kg pale
0.5kg Munich
0.2kg or the following
0.2 special B, caramunich2 and aromatic
Hopped to about 20 IBU with Styrians. OG 1.054 FG 1.014-5.
Any thoughts??
 
Not familiar with the yeast strain, but I'd say run any Belgian yeast at it's upper recommended temperature, and get it real funky! That could also be a nice recipe for a dry sour, that would be interesting!

Interesting. I was tempted to chuck some Saison yeast at it. 1214 is out. Just used it and its too stressful watching it try to ferment lol. Such a slow starter and finisher too! Going to try WLP530 at this one. Seems a good go to yeast of some of my brewing buddies. Also the new Mangrove jacks range might be a good experiement for this one
