Awesome beer, and a simple recipe. One of my new favorites.

Great beer! My dad and I did a run of this about 4-5 months ago. Turned out great. Making another batch today. Upscaled to 10 gals so we could share.

Great beer! I made this as my first all grain beer. The recipe states OG target of 1.062 which I found to be a very low target. It's about 65% efficient. I was able to do 1.072 OG at 75% efficiency. A little strong for a red ale but it tastes great!

I made a 2 gallon batch of this Irish Red. It was my first time brewing all grain. I have to say that this recipe came out very well. I'll be making a 5 gallon batch this weekend.

Did not quite hit the specific gravity targets but, hey! This is homebrewing. The final product is amazing. One of the best I've made in many years of dabbling. Very drinkable. Smooth and rich aftertaste.

This is a terrific recipe! I had the ingredients I liked so I thought I would give it a shot. I am a BIAB brewer and I got a 90% efficiency with this recipe. OG=1.076 and FG= 1.022. This baby has a great nutty flavor and an unreal punch. You can't tell this is a 7% beer until you are 3/4 through it. Ultra smooth and ultra clear. I have my method down pretty well so yours may vary but this is a keeper in my "brew again" list. Thanks Eric. I can get into more detail if you want to know more.
