If you are hankering for an Irish Red instead of an American Red, brew this beer with the Irish Ale yeast and drop the bittering and aroma hops by about 20%. Our Red Ale has a deep reddish amber hue, a full bodied, well balanced malt flavor, and an aromatic hop character with a moderate bitterness. This kit is one of our favorites, and is one of the most popular with our customers. Contains organic malt extract, organic specialty malts, organic hops, organic bottling sugar, Irish Moss, recipe, and instructions. Produces an original gravity of approximately 1.050. IBU's: 40. Recommended yeast for this kit (Not included! Order separately): Wyeast #1056 American Ale, or White Labs California Ale. ***NOTE: If you choose the option to purchase the kit without DME or corn sugar for bottling you will need to supply your own bottling sugar (corn sugar, DME, etc.). You may not need bottling sugar if you plan to keg your beer.
