Belgian GOLDEN STRONG Ale | Grain to Glass | Classic Styles

In this video, I revisited one of the very first styles of beer I ever tried to brew back when I started brewing many years ago. The Golden Strong Ale and the Trappist-style Tripel have a lot in common, both being strong golden Belgian beers but there are key differences between them. Golden Strong Ales tend to be less malt-complex, slightly more bitter, drier and more heavily carbonated. They are surprisingly simple beers to construct but have a relatively precise fermentation schedule that gives them their characteristic dryness. I had a great time brewing this beer and the result was a dangerous blonde ale that is quite drinkable and has all the multilayered complex flavor that Belgian yeast delivers!
