My new hobby , should be starting it as soon as I retire , did it as a kid with my grandad
I've made this beer many times. It always turns out well and seems to condition quickly, I tend to give it about 6 weeks from carbonation. Likely to remain one of my regular brews.
Had these before but this latest batch have a much larger lip that u twist off making it hard to remove and you can't reuse them which was the whole point of pursuing. please restock the old ones with a much shallow break. Because these are useless
I’ve tried loads of different brew kits and this is by far my favourite - totally reliable and I’m always happy with the results.
This is a very decent easy drinking red table wine which is easy to brew and very good value for money.
Pours dark brown/black with little to no light through the glass.
Smell: blackberries and fruits
Mouth feel: Not bad for a kit beer, quite velvety and smooth.
Taste: Immediate liquorice on the top, followed by dark fruit, some plum and a light bitterness on the finish.
Overall: Quite impressed with this one, don't think I've ever experienced this kind of complexity in a kit beer and it's very affordable too 10/10 for me.
This beer kit has been a great reminder of the taste of Heavy the heart of Scotland.
