How to brew it

Soften the cans in hot water, mix with 3.5 litres of boiling water, top up to 23 litres with cold water and add the yeast. Ferment at 18-20Β°C for 4-6 days until the gravity holds steady below 1014, then prime, keep warm for 2 days and condition somewhere cool for 14 days. Full steps: Muntons Gold instructions.

For stout lovers who like it dry and bitter. Want a sweeter, creamier pint? Add some Lactose to make a milk-stout version. More in the Muntons Gold range.

Frequently Asked Questions

How strong is it?

Can I make it sweeter?

Its now part of my staple diet having been brewing it for years. Its the nearest homebrew to my preferred taste. Not too strong, it tastes of proper ale, and is definitely best consumed chilled. Long may it continue.

I've been brewing these for many years and find them an easy and consistent kit. As I live in Northern Ireland and the local draught bitters and ales are awful it's nice to be able to brew an English bitter that's very quaffable. It's about 4.5% so doesn't wreck you. I've made at least 200 or so of these kits and love them, great price and delivery from Brewco. Cheers
