Notes

Added some extra steeping grains from unused inventory:
8oz. Briess caramel 40L
7oz. Briess Carapils...should increase head retention.
These will raise the ABV slightly above the recipe 4.6ABV.
Changed Hop additions. Recipe called for 1Oz. Willamette at 60 min. and 1oz US Golding at 30 min. Changed to .75oz Willamette at 60 min; .75oz US Golding at 30 min; added the remaining hops at 5 min to get some additional aroma from the hops. This also reduced the IBUs from 54 to 43...more in line with a traditional Irish Red Ale.
