Winter Red Ale - Partial Mash

Winter Red Ale - Partial Mash

This 6% ABV Irish style red ale is full of malty caramel flavors.  Maris Otter and crystal malts provide a rich malty flavor while East Kent Golding and Fuggle hops provide a balanced bitterness and some light floral and herbal flavors and aromas.  This recipe is a little higher in alcohol content than a standard Irish style red ale which makes it a perfect winter ale.
