Just brewed the Raging Red Irish Red and it's not red at all. I took my recipe in to the LHBS and several substitutes were made. After having brewed I started a little research that provided answers that will make me question substitutions in the future. I would love to hear commits on what good substitutes could have been made and why. The substitutions are below, recipe grains on the left and LHBS grain substitutes on the right. I was attempting to brew a malty batch of brew and the ingredients left out are probably essential to what I was looking for.
