I brewed and fermented this in my GF30 system. I split the final product into bottles and keg. Both are fantastic after 3 weeks from packaging. Luscious tropical flavours and aroma that fill my garage after a pour. I asked my non-beer drinking wife to try some and tell me what she could taste...pineapple mango was her response. Great finish with no unpleasant aftertaste. Beautiful colour. I'll do this one again.
Southern Pilsner is a refreshing take on the classic pilsner, infused with the bold hop character that defines New Zealand-style brewing. Right from the pour, it presents a pale golden hue with a crisp white head, inviting you in with bright citrus aromas—think zesty lemon with a subtle tropical fruit backdrop.
The first sip delivers a smooth balance of light malt and vibrant hops. Hints of creamy honey add a touch of sweetness, but the real star is the dry, crisp finish that keeps it refreshing and highly drinkable. The interplay between citrus zest and gentle malt makes this an excellent choice for those who appreciate a pilsner with a modern, hoppy twist. Perfect for warm afternoons or pairing with fresh seafood, this brew is both approachable and full of character.
Brewed on the BZ 4.1 and fermented under 12 psi.
Rebel IPA is a shining example of the American IPA style, showcasing the bold character of modern New World hops. Pouring a bright amber, it greets you with an explosion of orange and grapefruit citrus aromas, complemented by earthy, spicy, and piney undertones that add depth and intrigue.
On the palate, it delivers a crisp, smooth bitterness that’s perfectly balanced by a clean malt backbone. The fermentation profile is refreshingly clean, allowing the hops to take center stage without distraction. A dry finish ties everything together, leaving you eager for the next sip.
Rebel IPA is a masterfully crafted brew that highlights the creativity and complexity of hop-forward American IPAs.
Brewzilla 4.1 and fermented under pressure at 12 psi.
D’Or Bière de Garde is a true testament to French brewing artistry. This deep gold saison is visually stunning, glowing with a rustic elegance. The aroma greets you with subtle fruity notes that hint at the complexity to come. On the palate, it’s remarkably smooth, offering a thick, luxurious mouthfeel that feels almost velvety.
The flavor is bold and strong, yet balanced, with fruity undertones dancing alongside a malty sweetness and a whisper of spice. This artisanal brew carries a sense of tradition, crafted to be a beer for keeping, allowing its flavors to develop and mature with time.
Rich, tasty, and complex, D’Or Bière de Garde is the perfect choice for those who appreciate a hearty yet refined saison that celebrates the heritage of French brewing.
This was the first recipe kit I ordered from ATF after a longtime buying from elsewhere. It was by far the tastiest brew I have made and now sits at #1 on high rotation in my brewing schedule. ATF recipes only in my brewery going forward
Always been a fan of Supercharger and this is bloody close to it. Only problem is it keeps disappearing from the kegerator!!
Love Citra hops so unsurprisingly love this tasty brew!!
Although sweeter than described (1 to 2 out of 10) well worth making. Easy, soft quaffer. Great with a bbq. Am making again. Recommended
What a great summer lager, clean and crisp, dry finish, all round great
Pilsner.
Fermentation done in 3 days…..wow. 39c. Ready to drink after a week, tastes and smells amazing. In the keg for a couple of weeks to condition.
Clean, crisp and hop forward, needed 2 weeks in the keg and is now very drinkable. Brewed with BZ gen4 and fermented under pressure for a brilliant result. Thank Patricio for the BZ advice.
An interesting and different hop flavour, the nose is very fruity but the taste is smooth and well different, in a nice way. Hard to put down as the flavour hits the back of your mouth. Popular with all.
Nice and cheap
Get two lengths of this so you can siphon easier.
Good fermenter
