Ingredients (All Grain, 5 gal)

Maris Otter Pale
Maris Otter Pale
An English thoroughbred and a favored choice of malt for many brewers. Simpsons' Maris Otter has a rich and nutty flavor and despite its small, berry size has a strong husk. This malt delivers predictable brewhouse performance with modest, yet consistent extracts. Brewers can expect good runoffs with clear wort.

White Labs WLP005 British Ale

This yeast is a little more attenuative than WLP002. Like most English strains, this yeast produces malty beers. Excellent for all English style ales including bitter, pale ale, porter, and brown ale.
Notes
Beer came out very good, but is a little darker than I had hoped. Hit the gravity's on the head. I have a hunch that the color reads on the maris otter pale on beertools are a bit lower than I am getting from the store localy, as this is the second beer I've made using that malt and it has come out darker than expected. Nevertheless, a good beer, with just about the right amount of hoppiness for an irish red style.
