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.

The ATF Tangy Fruit is a great refreshing beer bursting with tangy citrus and tropical fruit aromas.

Like wine, this beer uses acidity to balance the malt sweetness instead of bitterness. The acidity has a pleasant citrus quality very similar to fresh lemons/lemonade, which provides the beer with a light body making it refreshing and very drinkable.

The ATF Tangy Fruit's acidity is provided by WildBrew Philly Sour yeast, a unique yeast that primarily produces lactic acid during the initial phase of fermentation before switching over to ethanol production.

Philly Sour takes longer than most yeasts to begin and complete fermentation so it is important to pitch the right amount of yeast. Yeast is not included in the kit.

Brick Road Down-Under Pale Ale: A Vibrant & Hoppy Classic

Craft your own signature Antipodean ale with our Down-Under Pale Ale brewing kit. This versatile foundation is your canvas to create a beer that matches your taste, from a sessionable light ale to a boldly hopped classic. Simply brew with sugar, or explore different fermentables and dry hops to make it uniquely yours.

What You'll Brew:

• Aroma & Flavour: A bright and hoppy character, driven by your choice of dry hops. Expect vibrant notes of tropical fruit, citrus, and pine from classic New World varieties.

• Appearance: A beautiful, pale straw colour.

• Character: Crisp, refreshing, and perfectly balanced with a clean malt backbone that supports a bold hop presence.

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 to create your perfect Pale Ale:

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: Adjust the body and ABV by using different fermentables like Dry Malt Extract (DME). See the can for recipe options.

2. Pitch & Ferment: Sprinkle in the included Pale Ale Yeast. Seal your fermenter and place it in a stable, room-temperature environment (around 18-22°C). The active fermentation will typically be complete within 3 to 7 days. You'll know it's slowing down when the vigorous bubbling in the airlock subsides.

3. Dry Hop (Highly Recommended) & Condition:
   For that classic flavour, dry-hopping is essential. Just as the active fermentation is finishing (e.g., around days 3-5), add your hops. We recommend 30g to 100g of New World hops like Galaxy, Pride of Ringwood, Nectaron, Nelson Sauvin, or Motueka. Adding them at this stage means the remaining active yeast will consume any oxygen introduced, protecting your beer's vibrant hop aroma.
   After dry hopping, 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 Pale Ale.

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.

• Colour: Pale Straw (5 EBC)

• Bitterness: Low-Medium (17 IBU)

• Original Gravity (OG): 1.038

• Final Gravity (FG): 1.008 (approx.)
