Notes
The idea for this beer is born from the desire is to make a beautifully red Irish Ale for St. Patrick's day. There are some later hop additions to add to the the overall character. More gypsum was used to offset the sweetness from the Cara Ruby and Special B
NEXT (3.0) will be no roasted barley, but pale chocolate malt (4% of grist). try to hop with EKG and Centennial.
2.0 has caravienna since there is no cararuby. Also, I added roasted barley for a touch of complexity. round 1 seemed to lack a lil depth. Hopefully the barley adds that touch it needs. Hops will be different too. I did Chinook and Amarillo.
I will need to mini mash 1# caramunich 50 AND 1# (extra) cara vienna for the belgium. To get to a dubble I would need 20 more gravity points. 7# of base malt gets me to 1.075. But it didnt, so I added 4# abbey, too. Mashed in a tun with 4 gallons. It was a low temp mash, about 146*.
the Irish came in at 1.060. I could have boiled much longer.... I am sill trying to figure my loses with my BrewEasy.... FG 1.01
After I added the minimash, I got an OG of 1.072. the sample was great... I hate these pre fermented sample, but this was no joke... Not enough bittering hops? Will it by cloying? 1.021 6.7%
