Deep Red Color, Bold Caramel Malt, and Classic Irish Attitude
In true Irish form, Tillery’s Irish Red Ale is big, brash, and full of sass. Malt character fully dominates the flavor profile with a rich, layered sweetness and a firm roast-accented finish. Built with dark Crystal, Special B, and Roasted Barley (plus supportive malts), this beer pours a deep red with a distinctive caramel-forward character that keeps you coming back for another pint.
This is a 5-gallon extract-based beer recipe kit that includes liquid malt extract, steeping grains, hops, and yeast—everything you need to brew a classic Irish-style red with depth and personality.

Fermentation Requirements

- Temperature control: Keep fermentation steady and follow the yeast or instruction-sheet temperature guidance for the cleanest result.
- Packaging: Confirm fermentation is complete before bottling or kegging, then package carefully to avoid oxygen pickup.
