How about riece? Its features are:
* Several IRC servers may be used at the same time.
* Riece can be dynamically extended by add-on modules.
* Installation is easy. Riece doesn't depend on other elisp packages.
* Setup is easy. Automatically save/restore the configuration.
* Riece uses separate windows to display users, channels, and dialogues.
Users can select the window layout.
* Step by step instruction is included.
* Mostly compliant with RFC 2812.

In addition, it has a connector to emacs's url package.
So you can do like:
(progn (url-mm-url "irc://irc.gnome.org:6667/#glade")
(url-mm-url "irc://irc.gnome.org:6667/#gtk"))
