Last November I got together with Danny over at Deeper Roots Brewing to construct a Flanders Red Style Sour beer that we brewed together on his 10 gallon system. The recipe is very close to a traditional Flanders style sour ale. Meanwhile on my 5 gallon system I took the spent grain and did a 5 gallon second running beer for our 1st batch of Dreg's. We took the original 10 gallons and split the batch 50/50. Leaving the second running batch as 4, 1 gallon Dreg batches.
Overview of the Original Idea.

Since last November both Danny and I have brewed another Flanders style beer independently for this project. His named Crumple Car and mine named Farmers Bitch (no post on that rebrew, only some pictures under the Farmers Daughter post). I also brewed the original recipe with just WLP001 to have as a neutral base for blending. Planning to cover all the avenues concerning flavor, acidity and aroma.
