ATF TropiLager

$50.90

8 in stock

The ATF TropiLager has a pleasant tropical pineapple aroma with notes of citrus along with a clean crisp malt aroma. The flavour is clean and crisp with a mild, slightly sweet, tropical fruit character leading to a smooth bitterness and drying finish. A very nice summer beer.

Yeast is not included in the kit. If fermenting cold we recommend using SafLager SH-45. The ideal Lager yeast to enhance hop thiol release result, crafting beers with enhanced levels of fruitiness and intensified citrus and tropical notes

If fermenting warm we recommend using: SafLager SH-45 (up to 18℃). Alternatively we recommend using Fermentis SafLager W-34/70 or Mangrove Jack's Californian Lager Yeast.

Mangrove Jack's Californian Lager Yeast

Mangrove Jack's Californian Lager yeast is a unique lager strain that has the ability to ferment at ale temperatures and still provide a typical lager flavour profile. 

Fermentis SafLager W-34/70

Sensory testing performed by Fermentis on W-34/70 shows that it is a very robust yeast capable of providing a clean neutral flavour profile across a wide range of fermentation temperatures (12℃ - 20℃). Click here to download the Fermentis iPhone app for more information.

ATF All Grain Brewery Kits

These recipes have been designed to be brewed on any brewing setup using a water to grist ratio of 3L per kilogram. Each kit contains a detailed recipe and instructions.

The pre-boil kettle volumes are based on a boil off rate of:

  • 3.5L per hour for 24L batches.
  • 4L per hour for 48L batches.

To ensure the target water profile and mash pH is achieved, brewing salts are included in each kit. During the purchase process, you can select your water source from a dropdown menu of known water sources. If your specific water source is not listed, you can provide a water analysis report, or simply select "Not Listed/Not Required."

If you are able to supply a water analysis report showing the amount of Calcium, Magnesium, Sodium, Chloride, and Sulphate in your brewing water, as well as the alkalinity (as CaCO3) or bicarbonate level, and pH, we will adjust the recipe and provide the required brewing salts specifically for you. Just select "I will supply a water analysis info" in the dropdown box.

If any of the minerals in your brewing water is above 50ppm, or if the Sodium level is over 25ppm, please contact us so we can assess whether your brewing water can be adjusted to the target profile of the beer you plan to brew.

The target water profile is provided for brewers using another source water so that the correct mineral/acid additions can be calculated to achieve the target water profile and mash pH. Click here to purchase brewing salts and/or lactic acid. If using chlorinated water we recommend using an activated carbon filter such as our Beer & Water Filtering System with our 0.5 Micron Carbon Water Filter or campden tablets to remove chlorine and/or chloramine from your brewing water.

Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions regarding the addition of brewing salts or acid.

You may also want to join the All Things Fermented Brewers Group where lots of great information is shared. Members of the group are also eligible for special discounts. Check out the Member Benefits page for all the details.

All ATF kits are only put together when ordered to ensure all ingredients are as fresh as possible. Hops are kept vacuum sealed and refrigerated. Yeast is also kept refrigerated.

All grain is packaged in heavy duty (125 micron) plastic bags that are heat sealed to ensure your grain stays as fresh as possible.
