Baltic Porter — Mangrove Jack's Build Your Own Beer Kit
Brew a Baltic Porter at home — no all-grain setup required. This ready-to-brew bundle pairs a Mangrove Jack's 6 Stout base can with a dedicated hop blend, brew enhancer and a genuine Craft Series yeast, giving you hand-built, craft-quality beer with the simplicity of a can kit. Just add water, pitch the yeast, and in a couple of weeks you'll have roughly 16 litres — about 28 pints — of 6.2% ABV Baltic Porter.
What's in the bundle
- Base: Mangrove Jack's 6 Stout can
- Hop blend: H8 Floral — delicate floral notes and light citrus

Tasting notes
A strong, smooth lager-fermented porter — dark fruit, chocolate and roast with a clean finish.
How to brew
- Sanitise all your equipment thoroughly.
- Stand the can in warm water, then empty the can and brew enhancer into your fermenter.
- Add hot water and stir to dissolve, then top up with cold water to 16 litres and mix well.
- Check the wort is around 20–24°C, then sprinkle the Craft Series yeast on top.
- Add the hop blend as directed, fit the lid and airlock, and ferment somewhere warm and stable.
- Ferment for around 1–2 weeks until the gravity is stable, then bottle or keg with priming sugar.
- Condition for at least two weeks (the longer the better), then chill and enjoy.
