Irish Red. Pretty happy with the colour and I feel I got close to the flavour I remember from my trip to Ireland last year.

Really happy with the pour out of the stout attachment on the intertap too. Makes a big difference to the taste of the beer.

No nitro in the keg, just the stout attachment at the tap?

No nitro, all my kegs are on the same regulator, carbed at about 12psi at 5C. Just screwed the tap attachment on and poured a beer. It's a slow pour at that pressure but it's worth the wait. Gives a nice creamy head and leaves just enough carbonation to keep the head in the glass the whole way down.

It does drip quite a bit out of the stout attachment though. Makes a mess of my drip tray.
 
So this my American amber/ red ipa. I used Deny's favorite ( yeast) as i wanted it a bit malty. A bit more roast than i had hoped for but pretty tastey.
Perfect colour but im not sure if its my recipe or the accidental 2 hour boil. I was brewing on a keggle at the same time and when i measured the pre boil volume i accidentally compared it with the keggle recipe. I added about 5lt more water to my 98lt lt before i twigged. Extended boil to get the volume down [emoji16] Since using my Guten though i have a feeling that my 5500w element is ading more colour than i thought. Just learning about thermal load now.....[emoji54]
