Notes

Irish Draught Ale All Grain Kit

O.G: 1045 / Ready: 5 weeks

Irish ales fall somewhere in between English and Scottish brewing traditions?mildly fruity and often brewed with sugar adjuncts like English bitters, but malty and lightly hopped like Scottish ales. Like Irish stouts, they're sociable session beers with a low alcohol content but substantial body. Inspired by beers like Caffrey's and Smithwick's, our Irish Draught Ale pours with a deep red color and tan head over a caramel-like malt character with roasty and fruity notes. As a bow to Ireland's meadmaking past, clover honey lightens the body and boosts the gravity of this recipe, while a small dose of oats adds creaminess to the mouthfeel and a hint of grain to the flavor. Serving our Irish Draught Ale on a Homebrew Nitrogen system (KX10 or KX11) will enhance this beer's satiny, mouth-filling drinkability so much you'll swear you're hiding from the wind and rain inside a cozy pub in Ireland.
