Notes

Malt oriented beer.
Easy drinking.
Low alcohol (4-6).
Low bittering (18-30 IBU).
Almost no hop flavor.
Caramel notes (roasted malt), but in moderation.
Roasted malt gives toasty notes and the red colour.
(could use chocolate RYE malt as 4% of grist if possible instead of roasted malt)
Mash at 67degrees.

Hops : Only at 60min.
Kent Goldings, Fuggle, Challenger, Target, Perle and Magnum
Target a bitterness-to-starting gravity ratio (IBU divided by OG) between 0.4 and 0.6

90min boil!

Yeast:
Wyeast 1084 Irish ale yeast (preferably)
Wyeast 1007 german ale yeast (next best thing)
Whitelabs WLP004 Irish ale yeast
....or Fermentis S-04; Danstar Nottingham ale yeast

Fermentation temp: Best to begin for 4 days at 17°and then complete with 20°. Do diacetyl rest last two days (20°+) if possible.
