Notes

Ferment in the primary fermenter 7 days, or until fermentation slows, the transfer to secondary and let sit for 14 days. Bottle when fermentation is complete.

This stout is ready to drink as it is carbonated; it is the clone of the version brewed in Ireland and is only 4.3% ABV. It will peak at 2 to 4 months and will keep at cellar temperatures for 5 months. Serve at 50^F (10^C) in a pint glass.

Slow-cook a warming Irish stew with Guinness gravy and serve with Irish soda bread.
