Twice is a charm...?

The first time I made this, the batch barely survived 2 months past bottling; mind you, it was summer. It was made with US56 Yeast, a handful of Saaz in the boil and a Fuggles teabag at the end. I rushed out and bought another. It's autumn and the second batch is now in a glass in front of me, a month old; pretty much when I cracked into the last lot. This batch is again the kit and a kilo of dextrose, however this time with 15g NZ Bullets for bittering and some Hallertau for aroma at the end. Also, this time I used S04 as the yeast. It's good and it's drinkable, maybe a bit thin. There's some caramel flavour going on, but it's subdued, overall the malt is pretty smooth, not too weighty, nothing outstanding. I don't think I'll be rushing out again.

its beer, its good

Added CBE2, 40g crystal, 20g choc, 14g Hallertau pellets. Brewed with kit yeast for 10 days @ 20-26 degC. Well rounded, flavoursome beer after 4 weeks, colour clear golden-brown, lighter than I'd expected. Done same recipe previously using a cultured yeast from a Coopers Sparkling Ale and brewed 6 days @ 26-32 degC with similar pleasing results.

Not Good

First kit I have done for months, used a brew bag with british ale 1098. Colour is good, flavour is lacking hops and is rather sweet, not good at all.

First Cascade Kit

Was given this kit as a gift. Made with 2kg of liquid malt extract and added 20gms Fuggles Hops tea to primary, kit yeast. Left to ferment for 10 days and bottled. Results were OK , probably wouldn't make again
