Festival Beer Kits

The Festival Beer Kits range is one of the most exciting premium home brew ranges available in the UK. Festival kits are inspired by classic British real ales, world beer styles, and craft brewing traditions, using high-quality ingredients to produce beers with real depth, character, and complexity. These are kits for brewers who take their home brewing seriously — and want results to match.

Each 3kg kit produces approximately 40 pints of premium-quality beer from £29.95 — around 75p per pint for beer that genuinely rivals craft pub offerings.

Available in 13 styles: Suffolk Strong Ale, Summer Glory, Pilgrims Hope, Landlords Finest, Golden Stag, World German Weiss, World New Zealand Pilsner, World Belgian Pale Ale, World Belgian Dubbel, Razorback and American IPA.

What Equipment Do You Need?

A 25-litre fermenter with airlock, a hydrometer, a syphon, and either bottles with caps or a pressure barrel. New to brewing? Our home brew starter kits bundle everything in one go. Always sanitise thoroughly with VWP or ChemSan.

Tips for Best Results

• Condition for at least 2–3 weeks in the bottle — Festival kits genuinely reward patience
• Use medium crystal spray malt with the amber and bitter styles for a richer, more complex result
• Ferment at 18–20°C for the cleanest flavour expression
• Serve British styles at cellar temperature (10–12°C) for the best flavour
