What are grains of paradise?

This recipe does not include grains of paradise — but Styrian Goldings and Saaz hops provide similar spicy, herbal, and floral complexity alongside the fruity esters from Belgian yeast.

Belgian Golden Ale is one of the great sleight-of-hand styles in the brewing world — a beer that looks light and approachable but delivers far more than its appearance suggests. Devil in Disguise is inspired by the legendary Belgian Golden Ale tradition, built to capture that same golden brilliance, effervescent character, and deceptive drinkability.

Innocently pale with a light, airy body. Devilishly strong at 8.8% ABV.

Munich malt and aromatic malt build a soft, rounded malt backbone without adding color or weight. Dextrose — the authentic Belgian technique for boosting alcohol while keeping the beer golden and dry — pushes the ABV to a commanding 8.8% that hides effortlessly behind a crisp, clean finish. Styrian Goldings and Saaz hops contribute earthy, herbal, and mildly spicy character, while Belgian ale yeast delivers classic fruity esters and a dry, attenuated finish that keeps you reaching for another.

This complete 1-gallon beer making kit includes everything needed to brew from start to finish.
