Good clean session beer...just like the other lower cost all grain kits you could easily make this a base-beer to build off of. Followed the instructions exactly and hit OG/FG easily...use Calidry yeast...fast to ferment...fast to finish. Went quickly on tap.

Love it. Made 10 gallons as is, added Munich 20 and some roasted barley for another 10 gallons. Veritile base.

Mashed at 153. Used San Francisco lager yeast. Let sit in keg for 3 weeks at 60 degrees after fermentation. Really good hop flavor and aroma and creamy head.

Used US-05 on it, hopped in the keg. 5/5 will make it again.

I love this beer. And the price makes it even better.

I did this with US-05 and it plays more like a session IPA or a Pale, but a really good one. Norther / Simcoe blend is great, not too piney and well balanced. Came out super clear with malt flavor and color like a common just a bit more hop flavor. I'm interested in trying it again with WLP810.

The Wyeast 2112 gave this beer lager like characteristics. Mashed this recipe at 153 F and held the fermentation temp at 64 F. Tested positive on a friend who dislikes hoppy/bitter beers. I am not a fan of Northern Brewer as a flavor or aroma hops. The Simcoe addition seemed to reduce the harshness from the NB hops while maintaining balanced flavor. It's a little more like a pale ale in a good way. I am going to make this kit for fall 2017 and not mess with the lager yeast for an Oktoberfest.
