Murphy's Irish Stout Clone

[bierhaus15]

Well, I couldn't wait any longer so I cracked one open tonight. It is WONDERFUL! Thank you both for this recipe!!! I think it's my favorite that I've brewed so far. Here's a quick pic of it.

Awesome! Beamish or Murphy's, its great to see people showing some love for Ireland's other "dark stuff."

Anyone know what category this would go into for a brewing competition? Thinking of entering it in one this fall but Irish Stout isn't a category.

Thanks,

Mike

Enter it under dry stout. Good luck!

Great thread. Thanks for posting tasting notes and final product. Too many threads just discuss the brewday and never get around to how it tastes and how the recipe can improve. I am going to brew this up for my new nitro setup. I'll try to remember to post results!

Agreed that the nitrocans SUCK! AND the Ireland Guinness DOES taste TOTALLY different than what you get in America....

I know this thread is ancient but I wanted to point out that despite Guinness's tricky misleading "brewed in Dublin" statement Guinness is made by multiple different breweries around the world.... for example Labatt brewing company makes it in canada for export into the states... I doubt they ship the famous native water over to make it from and who knows how well they are matching the mineral content.
I went on a cruise last year and the cans they had on the ship were from japan and they had a higher alcohol% on the can...

Not sure which country it's brewed in gets exported to US, but I think it is Ireland.
Nice article in a recent fall zymurgy issue about brewing that I was going to try this spring, but my propane QD was leaking so I couldn't brew. Now I may not brew it until fall doing the two step split mash.

IVe been told by two separate distributors that it comes from an hour and a half from me over the border...

Plus this came up in a vegan article my girlfriend showed me (she is a vegetarian) that the guiness made by labatt in canada for export to the US is vegan friendly while the stuff from ireland uses the fish stomach byproduct for filtering..
here an article from a quick search.

EDIT somehow I missed the fact that they are only referring to the extra stout brew.... I know what I had on the cruise ship was the draught... i even took a pic of the can because I thought it was odd at the time.

isinglass is used all over the world to clear up beer and wine... at any rate i think i will brew the beamish recipe today it looks/sounds good, and i don't have a stout on right now.
