Brought back from obscurity by Pierre Celis at the Hoegaarden brewery, Witbier is a great refreshing beer. With plenty of un-malted wheat along with a portion of oats, Witbier is typically cloudy with a soft grainy sweetness. Belgian Wit Yeast adds subtle banana fruitiness and clove notes, which are enhanced through the addition of coriander seeds and fresh orange yeast.
In addition to what is included in the kit you will need 12g of coriander seed and 45g of orange zest (or the zest of your favourite citrus fruit).
Yeast is not included in the kit. We recommend using Froth Unicorn (Assumed Origin: Hoegaarden), or you could use Lallemand Lalbrew Wit or Mangrove Jack's Belgian Wit Yeast.
Roggenbier translates to “Rye Beer”. It is typically 50% Rye malt giving it a characteristic grainy spicy character, which is completed by the classic weizen yeast tartness, spicy clove phenolics and fruity banana esters. With hints of dark stone fruit and caramel flavours it is great Autumn and Winter wheat beer, but due to its medium dry to dry finish it is drinkable all year round.
Yeast is not included in the kit. We recommend using Lalbrew Munich Classic or Mangrove Jack's Bavarian Wheat yeast.
Note on Rye Malt
Rye malt contains a high amount of beta glucan, which increases wort viscosity and may slow runoff during lautering and sparging, and potentially cause a stuck sparge.
A mash rest at 40℃, sometimes called a Beta Glucanase rest, can help to break down the beta glucan in the wort and reduce the risk of a stuck sparge.
As added insurance this recipe includes oat hulls in the mash. The oat hulls do not add any fermentables, but improve the filter bed of the mash to reduce the risk of a stuck sparge.
The ATF Schwarzbier (black beer) is a light bodied lager beer with a mild roast character. An easy drinking beer with aromas of chocolate of coffee blending with a light noble hop aroma.

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

Pacifica 2025
Batch: 25-006
Alpha: 5.80%
Beta: 6.10%
A dual purpose / bittering hop with a spicy “dried fruit” character and solid finish.
Breeding:
A triploid aroma type developed through by New Zealand’s Plant & Food Research. Pacifica™ Brand 77-01 was bred through the open pollination of the highly regarded Hallertauer Mittlefru¨h variety. Pacifica™ was released on completion of successful brewing trials in 1994.
Selection:
Pacifica™ displays classic Hallertau citrus and floral aroma character which selectors mark as a real standout. The aroma is supported by a generous oils profile making selection possible for several beer styles from this stylish hop.
Brewing:
Pacifica™ brings something of a blend of new and old-world taste descriptors to the brewers' forum. Orange marmalade aptly describes the citrus aroma notes achieved through late addition. Bittering quality is such that early kettle additions net a soft yet solid finish even in highly bittered beers.
Applications:
Finds application where a higher oil concentration and proportion of Linalool are required to impact on how the hop character integrates into the final product. Ideally suited to traditional German lager styles and finding wider application to a new generation through the international craft market’s insatiable thirst for Pale Ale.

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.

Taiheke® 2025 Harvest
Batch: 25-323
Alpha: 7.70%
Beta: 5.80%
New Zealand grown dual purpose US Cultivar with citrus “grapefruit/lime” characters.
Breeding:
Taiheke® Brand USDA 56013 originates from an early US breeding program circa 1956 and was the first commercially bred hop to emerge from the USDA-ARS program when released in 1972. It was bred from crossing an English Fuggle with a male selection believed to have been a crossing of Fuggle with the Russian variety Serebrianka.
Selection:
During selection this hop displays quite exceptional levels of citrus moving more to New Zealand tropical fruit characteristics. Through selection, agronomics and “Terroir” the flavour and aroma characteristics have altered markedly from the original cultivar to no longer be considered the same variety. Its bright colour and tight compact cone shape give it instant appeal during selections and the power of its resinous fruit mix on the senses makes it a real standout during selection.
Brewing:
Performs well when used as a single variety across multiple kettle additions or when singled out as a late gift or dry hopping duty. Can do some really great things for the hop advocate when matched up with some of the other New Zealand aroma heavy weights such as Motueka or Riwaka. A fun hop in the brewery which literally sighs with pleasure when plunged into a hop back.
'A personality of its own’
Applications:
Typically employed in “new world” style pale ales and creative brewers are using it for very intense summer ales where its fruit forward aroma and oils profile make for a refreshing finish.
