Anyone got a Red Ale Recipe?

[Garak]

Last night we got into a keg of Festabrew Red Ale and everyone loved it. So now I want to make my own all grain version. Been searching for recipes and they seems to vary greatly, I'd like to come pretty close to the festabrew version.

Any suggestions?

Not quite a red, but I REALLY enjoy Jamil's amber recipe: http://beerdujour.com/Recipes/Jamil/Jam ... berAle.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

It's been a while since I had the festabrew red, what's it taste like? Is it more of an irish red or american style red?

[Garak]

Its very low on the IBU scale, malty but not heavy. Its maybe a bit too drinkable by the way my head feels today. If I had to guess I would think its irish red, its not at all like rickards.

Here's what Festabrew says about their red: Irish style Red Ale. Attractive red-amber colour. Moderate malt body and pleasant mild sweetness. Moderate hop bitterness, mild hop flavour and low hop aroma. A step towards darker beers, without the roasted components. OG: 1.0492 – 1.0500, FG: 1.0132 – 1.0144, Yeast: Safale S-04, IBUs: 13

Here's one from Beerdujour: <http://beerdujour.com/Recipes/2006-05-0 ... sh_ed.html>. Apparently it has won numerous awards, "the highest was this one in 06 BUZZ boneyard brewoff. First place, it also has a second in 05 HHHC, Third in 05 UMMO.All were entered as Irish red."

Jamilz irish red is 91% Marriso Otter, 3% Cyrstal 120, 3% Crystal 30, 3% Roast Barley and 32 IBUs of EKG all at the 60 min mark. It's a good beer, I usualy have some on the go, Shawna loves the stuff.

Be sure to add lots of fire ants.

The link above now redirects to Jamil's Red Rocket clone. Here's a Way Back Machine link to his older Amber-Red. Note: It is a bit different that what he has in BCS. http://web.archive.org/web/201011200131 ... RedAle.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
