It has layers of gentle dark caramel sweetness with hints of caramelised fruit and toasted toffee, blended beautifully with a smooth roast character with hints of dark chocolate. The English yeast provides a pleasant light fruitiness and slight tartness.

Munich Dunkel is a malt oriented German dark lager. It is a rich complex beer with flavours of warm toasty bread crust and rich caramel and toffee. Despite the malt forward flavour, Munich Dunkel has a dry finish and does not come across as overly sweet making it a very sessionable beer.

Traditionally Munich Dunkel would have been made using a decoction mash to encourage the Maillard reactions that help give the beer its rich malty flavours. The ATF Munich Dunkel uses a small amount of Aurora Malt to help provide the maltiness typical of the style.

Yeast is not included in the kit. If fermenting cold we recommend using Fermentis SafLager W-34/70 or Lallemand Diamond Lager Yeast.

If fermenting warm we recommend using Fermentis SafLager W-34/70 or Mangrove Jack's Californian Lager Yeast.

NEIPA’s are an unfiltered IPA packed with hop flavour and aroma. Typically hazy in appearance with a soft bitterness and full rounded mouthful, NEIPA are all about hop flavour and aroma.

With most of the calculated IBU contribution coming for the whirlpool hops the bitterness is softer than you may expect.

NEIPA’s are particularly sensitive to oxidation and are best drunk young.

This is our interpretation of Emerson’s Bookbinder. In Emerson’s own words Bookbinder is:

A wonderfully drinkable interpretation of a classic English ale. Bookbinder is a blend of four malts combined with two classic Nelson grown European hops (Fuggles and Riwaka). The beer pours an attractive reddish brown, with a cream coloured head. Bookbinder has a sweet, perfumey, malt and hop aroma with a soft, malty, fruit and vinous palate that is both full flavoured and refreshing with a long, gently drying finish.

Yeast is not included in the kit. We recommend using Froth Vape (Assumed Origin: Boddington’s),the yeast currently by Emerson's to produce Bookbinder. Alternatively we recommend using Lallemand Verdant IPA, or you could also try Fermentis S-04 or Mangrove Jack's Liberty Bell.

Brick Road Classic Lager: A Crisp & Refreshing All-Round Lager

Experience the taste of a perfectly balanced lager with our Classic Lager brewing kit. This refreshing, light-coloured beer is the perfect introduction to homebrewing, yielding a smooth, easy-drinking lager with a balanced hop finish.

What You'll Brew:

• Aroma & Flavour: Clean and crisp with a subtle malt sweetness, leading to a balanced, low-medium hop bitterness that finishes smooth and satisfying.

• Appearance: A beautiful pale straw colour, clear and bright.

• Character: Incredibly sessionable, refreshing, and light. It’s the perfect, easy-drinking beer for any occasion.

Your Brewing Journey, Made Simple:

This all-in-one can contains our exceptional hopped wort—the foundation of your great beer. Just follow these steps for a crisp, refreshing lager:

1. Mix & Make it Your Own: Empty the contents of the can into your fermenter. Add about 3 litres of hot water and stir thoroughly to dissolve the concentrated wort. Then, add your 1kg of brewing sugar (dextrose) and stir again until fully dissolved. Finally, top up the fermenter with cold water to reach the 23-litre mark.

   • Pro Brewer Tip: For a drier, crisper beer, add a sachet of glucoamylase enzyme with the yeast. It breaks down unfermentable sugars, allowing the yeast to produce more alcohol, resulting in a lower final gravity and a higher ABV.

2. Pitch & Ferment: Sprinkle in the included New World Lager Yeast. This hybrid yeast is versatile and can be fermented at room temperature. Seal your fermenter and place it in a stable environment (ideally 18-22°C). The active fermentation will typically be complete within 5 to 10 days.

3. Dry Hop (Optional) & Condition: This is your chance to customise! As the active fermentation is finishing (e.g., around days 5-7), add up to 30g of your favourite hops for an extra layer of flavour. Adding them at this stage means the remaining active yeast will consume any oxygen introduced, protecting your beer from oxidation. After any dry hop addition, allow the beer to condition for another 3 to 7 days. This gives the yeast time to "clean up" and allows the hop particles to settle.

4. Carbonate & Enjoy: Once conditioning is complete, bottle your beer with carbonation drops. Store the bottles at room temperature for 1-2 weeks to allow for natural carbonation before chilling and enjoying your fresh, homebrewed lager.

Approximate Specifications (for 23L batch with 1kg dextrose):

• ABV Range: Brew it as a sessionable Low (2.6%) or a classic Mid (4.8%) strength. Using glucoamylase will result in a higher ABV.

• Colour: Pale Straw (5 EBC)

• Bitterness: Low-Medium (17 IBU)

• Original Gravity (OG): 1.038

• Final Gravity (FG): 1.008 (approx.)

"Waikato Draught was first brewed in the 1920's and has been the beer of the Waikato region ever since. The beer has a strong malty flavour and a well-defined bitterness."

Create a clone of Waikato Draught with this recipe created by Mangrove Jack's.

This kit consists of:

• Mangrove Jack's International Series Czech Pilsner
• Mangrove Jack's Beer Enhancer NZ Draught 1kg
• Mangrove Jack's Californian Lager yeast (to be used in place of the yeast that comes with the International Series Czech Pilsner)

The ATF Fullers 1845 Clone aims to replicate the strong, rich and fruity ale, that was specially commissioned to celebrate 150 years of the Fuller, Smith and Turner partnership. For best results this beer should be bottle conditioned for 100 days. Bottle conditioning should take place in a cool dark environment.

Fullers Brewers Notes

Best poured slowly, 1845 delivers a sweet, fruit cake aroma, a dark tawny colour and a dry finish that sings of spices and raisin. Those fruity characteristics harmonise perfectly with the biscuity malts amid a clever and complex range of subtle flavours, the depth of which you could only find in a live beer fermented in the bottle.

Yeast is not included in the kit. We recommend using Mangrove Jack's Liberty Bell or you could also try Fermentis SafAle S-04.

If crash cooling it is possible to cause the yeast thermal shock, which may be an issue when bottle conditioning, particularly a higher alcohol beer. 

Irish Stouts are a black beer with a pronounced roasted flavour, often similar to coffee. The balance can range from fairly even to quite bitter, with the more balanced versions having a little malty sweetness and the bitter versions being quite dry.

This kit includes malt and hops that require steeping.

Yeast is not included in the kit. We recommend using Lallemand Nottingham yeast or Mangrove jack's New World Strong yeast.
