Meggyes Trappist Ale with Cherry and Vanilla (Homebrew Recipe)

Recipe and notes provided by Kristen England, head brewer at Bent Brewstillery (Roseville, MN). Meggyes is a beautiful deep red beer with big, bright notes of cherry. The professional version Kris brewed is a fairly dry Trappist-style ale with wonderful ester-y sweetness from both the cherries and vanilla.  See this Chop & Brew 12 Beers
