St Jay - Irish Red System

Description
Does not fit well into any "official" BJCP style, but it is a nice red beer for St Patrick's day. If you brew this, it may come out closer to copper, orange, or light brown. If it comes out a bit off and you brew it again someday, add or subtract just a touch of the Chocolate Malt to lighten or darken the beer.
