Notes: Mash, lauter, and sparge as usual, then add the candi syrup to your kettle (off the heat), stirring until it dissolves—you might think about doing this between the mash, and the lauter, especially if (like me) you fill to near the top of your kettle (it avoids sloshing wort over the side!). Boil for 60 minutes, chill, aerate, and pitch your yeast. Fermentation is the name of the game here—not surprising in any Belgian beer, but especially true of these dark versions. There’s a lot in this beer that might make it seem sweet, and so we need to make sure that it ferments out nice and dry. Leave too much body and sugar behind, and that, plus the alcohol, plus the esters, plus the flavor of burnt sugar, might make it come across as sweet, which is a no-no.
Ferment at 64°F (18°C) to start and increase slowly almost immediately. The goal is to minimize warm alcohols but also to promote complete fermentation and some yeast flavor contributions. From the time I see fermentation activity (usually about 8−12 hours after a healthy dose of oxygen), I start increasing the temperature by 1°F (1−2°C) per day until I hit room temperature. If that’s below 70°F (21°C) as it sometimes is this time of year, I’ll move the carboy to a warm spot and let it free-rise to as high as it can go. The Ardennes is a high-flocculator, and as a result, you want to let it get right to work, finish fermentation, and drop clear.
Carbonate to 2.5 volumes to give an added dry feel, and you’re good to go! The result should be a dry but complex beer that is a beautiful ruby-red, especially after a couple of weeks of chilling after packaging! |

2 cups water to 1/2 cup DME and placed on Stir Plate.
Using Yeast Calculater from Brewers Friend site, I determined that original Starter did not produce sufficient quantity of active yeast cells. So there will need to be a 2nd starter added to the first.

Notes: Spent 3 weeks in primary
During fermentation the first few days the temp was reaching 78F then calmed down to around mid 70s once fermentation calmed. The 3rd week temp was around low 70s.
4.5 oz dextrose for priming. Needed 3 weeks in the bottle before CO2 was noticable.
Tested at 1 month in bottle (storage temp around low 70s): color was a lot darker than i expected, taste very sweet and lots of fruit aroma (mango, orange) taste was cherry like and fruity. I was hoping for more of a Belgiany yeasty flavor with a fruity nose. May need more time in bottle to condition.
Tested at 2 months: pretty much the same i'm not sure yet if i like it. I can and will drink it though, lol, but will keep aging and test every so often.
3 months aged: more CO2 fizz when pouring (which it needed), fruitiness aroma and the taste is getting better. Still cherry and citrus but it seems the sweetness is mellowing a little (which is a good thing). keep aging
