Irish Uprising

March 10th, 2010
A malt-focused beer with an initial sweetness and a roasted dryness in the finish. 
My first hoorah into the Irish Red style (BJCP 9D).  Not really my favorite but I had to brew either this style or Scotch Ale for the CRABS March monthly competition.   Calling this the “Irish Uprising” due to the yeast tricking me.   Very slow to start due to some over chilling but once it got around 65F things really took off.  
This recipe is originally taken from Jamil with a few minor tweaks.
