I am almost ready to brew my first batch and I've chosen the Irish Red Ale kit from Midwest Supplies. I have a quick question about adding honey to the wort. Am I correct that I would add about 1.5lbs or so while it is cooling after the boil but before I place the wort into the fermenter with the cold water? I've been drinking some Killians and I think a honey flavor would really set it off. Also, what would adding honey do to the alcohol content? A friend of mine has several beehives so obtaining some real honey shouldn't be an issue.
Thanks for any help!
