McCarthy's Irish Red Brew Session


This is an Irish red recipe from "Brewing Classic Styles". Overall it was a nice brew day. It was so smooth that I completely forgot to take the SG reading before I pitched the yeast packs. Oh well, we can't win em' all! It smelled exactly like Smithwicks. It should turn out quite nice. efficiency was estimated around 70%.
