Festival Pilgrims Hope is a big, malty bitter kit with complex flavours of tropical fruit and pine needles from Target and Summit hops. It makes 23 litres (40 pints) at around 5.0% ABV, from malt extract alone with no added sugar.
Tasting notes
- Big, malty backbone
- Tropical fruit and pine from the hops
- A full, well-rounded bitter
What's in the box
- Liquid malt extract - no added sugar needed
- A genuine brewer's yeast strain
- Hop pellets, added partway through fermentation for fresh aroma
- Priming sugar for bottling
How to brew
Mix the malt extract with water in your fermenter, top up to 23 litres, pitch the yeast and add the hop pellets halfway through fermentation, following the kit's step-by-step instructions. Fermentation takes around a week before bottling or kegging.
You'll also need
- 25 Litre Fermentation Vessel with Tap and an airlock
- Wine & Beer Hydrometer - to check fermentation has finished
- ChemSan - no-rinse sanitiser for everything that touches the beer
- Bottles with crown caps and a capper, or a King Keg pressure barrel
For bitter drinkers who like a bit more hop flavour than a session ale. Give it a few weeks in the bottle for the flavours to settle. More in the Festival Beer Kits range.
