Good for kit beer

I did this kit beer to keep my Aussie Megaswill drinking buddies happy. Not to far off the major brand names in terms of profile, but with much more flavour ( good for craft beer appreciation - a bit scary for megaswill drinkers !!) Made with Ultrabrew no. 1 which has Malt, Dextrose and Malto-Dextrose - yeast was safale US05 for clean flavour. Hops in can was a bonus! Easy to make, good megaswill replacement - quite sweet

Heineken Knock-off

Used the kit plus 500g light dried malt, and 250 each of dextrose and maltodextron. Added 12g of Tettnanger hops after a 10 minute steep in boiling water. Yeast was Saflager. Fermentation would have been 17'C average. Came out with a beautifully clear, well bodied, flavoursome beer! Held its head very nicely, and was probably one of my best so far. No hesitations in making again. 5 star brew.

Sensational

Have brewed this 3 times and each time I think it can't get better. Latest brew was fermented with 1kg of body brew and 12gm of Hallertau finishing hops. Was allowed to mature 3 months in bottle and is outstanding. ^ months old bottle of this brew is absolutely out of this world.

Sensational Lager

Just sampled above brew afetr 3 months in bottle. Absolutely SENSATIONAL! Kit was brewed with 1kg light dry malt, Hallertau finishing hops and Saflager S23 yeast, then bulk primed. Everything that you want a lager to be. Can hardly wait to get my next one in the fermenter.

Choc lager

Made this beer as per country brewers recipie used 1kg of lite/dark, 12grams of super alpha hops standard method, plus 150grams of choc grain steeped. Very nice beer the flavour of the grain comes through nicely. Used yeast provided, 1 week in primary then racked to secondary for 1 week then bottled. Would make again for sure.
