IREKS Mela Red Alder - 55 lb. Bag
IREKS Mela Red
IREKS Mela Red is a melanoidin-style specialty malt designed to build rich malt aroma, warm red color, and a fuller malt impression in the finished beer. It adds the kind of depth brewers often associate with traditional lager brewing: bread crust, toasted malt, and a rounded malt sweetness that can make a beer feel more complete.
Use it in red lagers, amber lagers, Märzen, bock, altbier, amber ales, and other malt-forward recipes where color and malt complexity matter. Mela Red is especially useful when you want to enhance malt richness, deepen the beer’s reddish hue, and create a more layered malt profile without pushing into heavy caramel or roast character.
