What is the difference between Stout and Irish Stout?

A stout is a dark beer made with roasted malts or roasted barley. It belongs to the wider style of Stout. Stouts can vary widely in sweetness, strength, and flavour depending on the subtype.

An Irish stout refers to a specific style of stout known for its dry finish and light body. It belongs to the style of Irish stout. All Irish stouts count as stouts, but not all stouts qualify as Irish stouts. Irish stout represents the dry, lighter, classic version of the wider stout family.

Key differences

  • Flavour: Irish stout tastes dry and roasty, while other stouts may taste sweet or rich.
  • Body: Irish stout feels lighter, while many stouts feel thicker and heavier.
  • Sweetness: Irish stout stays low in sweetness, while milk or imperial stouts taste sweeter.
  • Strength: Irish stout usually sits around 4–5.5% ABV, while other stouts can reach much higher levels.

ADDITIONAL INGREDIENTS REQUIRED:

To make this kit, you will either need 1Kg Brewing Sugar, 1Kg Lager Beer Kit Enhancer (Preferred) or 1.2Kg Mangrove Jack’s Malt Extract. Later, you will also need sugar or carbonation drops to prime the keg or bottles for the secondary fermentation. We also advise using finings like Starbrite to ensure your lager clears quickly and the sediment sticks to the bottom on the bottle or keg.

Muntons Premium Beer Kits

The Muntons Premium range was developed for the original four kits in the early days of English home-brewing. Formulations for this range have purposely not been changed since they were first developed back in the early 1970s ′s – a tremendous heritage and a proven track record. The Premium range allows home beer makers to experience high-quality flavours in their own homes, enjoyably and economically. Once again the Muntons Premium range is made entirely from 100% hopped malt extract with no inferior or cheap adjuncts such as barley syrup.

WHAT EQUIPMENT DO YOU NEED?

Basic beer making equipment (5g fermenter, airlock, syphon tube with sediment trap, hydrometer, Suresan sanitiser, bottles or barrel). These are available under the starter kit section on this website.

TIPS:

We strongly recommend using Pure Brew with this kit to achieve commercial-quality beer. Pure Brew acts as a professional beer enhancer and improves fermentation performance. It feeds yeast essential nutrients and supports strong fermentation, even in low oxygen conditions. Additionally, it treats brewing water and removes chlorine and chloramine. These compounds can cause unwanted “homebrew” flavours in the finished beer. Brewing water quality plays a key role in final beer quality. However, many homebrewers often overlook this important factor. Pure Brew helps you easily condition water and improve fermentation results.

Furthermore, beer finings improve clarity and final presentation. Harris Beer Brite clears beer quickly and helps sediment settle at the bottom. This works especially well for bottles and barrels after fermentation. If you use Corny Kegs, clear the beer as much as possible before kegging. Finings help sediment and haze particles drop out more efficiently before packaging. Harris Starbrite provides a highly effective vegan-friendly fining option. As a result, homebrewers achieve clearer, better-looking, and better-tasting beer.
