ATF Alchemy IPA showcases the best of New Zealand hops and transforms them into something magical. With tropical passionfruit up front blending magically with a range of citrus, stone fruit, and resinous pine, sitting on top of a solid malt base with a light biscuit character, it is a wonder to behold.
Yeast is not included in the kit. We recommend using Froth Buddy (Assumed Origin: Sierra Nevada), or Lallemand's BRY-97 West Coast Ale Yeast. You could also try Safale US-05, Lallemand Nottingham High Performance Ale Yeast, or Mangrove Jack's West Coast Yeast.
English Strong Bitter is often referred to as English Pale Ale or Extra Special Bitters. It is characterised by a firm bitterness (often falling in the range of 30 to 50 IBUs), however it should not overpower the malt. Balance is important and most examples range from balanced to moderately bitter.
It should have a moderate hoppy flavour and aroma, with a complex malt and yeast character. It is common for caramel/crystal malts to be used.
The ATF ESB has a complex malt flavour and aroma consisting of a malty biscuity base with layers of light to dark caramel flavours. In the background are delicate fruity esters provided by the yeast.
The hopping provides a firm bitterness that nicely balances the malt character along with a pleasant resinous, citrusy, herbal flavour and aroma with a spicy undertone. Whilst the hop flavours and aromas are apparent, they do not dominate.
The beer has a full, almost silky mouthfeel, that finishes moderately dry.
Yeast is not included in the kit. We recommend using Mangrove Jack's Liberty Bell Yeast, or you could also try Lallemand Verdant IPA.
With the aroma of sweet crema brewed from freshly roasted coffee on top of subtle chocolate and nutty dark fruit caramel flavours, the ATF Velveteen Stout is a revelation.
Unlike a traditional dry stout, the ATF Velveteen Stout has no acrid bitterness or astringency from the use of large amounts of traditional dark malts.
It has a full malt backbone and a creamy velvety mouthful with sufficient hop bitterness to ensure it isn’t too sweet and leave you wanting more.
Yeast is not included in the kit. We recommend using Froth Rudeboy (Assumed Origin: Youngs Brewery) or Mangrove Jack's Empire Ale yeast. You could also try Mangrove Jack's Liberty Bell yeast.
Brick Road Pilsner Blonde: A Crisp & Refreshing European-Style Lager
Brew a taste of continental elegance with our Pilsner Blonde brewing kit. This classic lager delivers the clean, crisp character of a European pilsner with a beautifully blonde colour and a refreshingly dry finish that lingers perfectly on the palate.
What You'll Brew:
-
Aroma & Flavour: A clean and crisp profile with a subtle malt sweetness, leading to a balanced, low-medium hop bitterness and a refreshingly dry finish.
-
Appearance: A beautiful blonde colour, pale straw and bright.
-
Character: Crisp, smooth, and incredibly drinkable. It’s the perfect session 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 Pilsner Blonde:
-
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 an even drier, crisper beer and a lower carbohydrate content, add a sachet of glucoamylase enzyme with the yeast. It breaks down unfermentable sugars, allowing the yeast to produce more alcohol and resulting in a lower final gravity.
-
-
Pitch & Ferment: Sprinkle in the included New World Lager Yeast. Seal your fermenter and place it in a stable, room-temperature environment (this versatile hybrid yeast can be fermented at up to 22°C or 72°F). 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.
-
Dry Hop (Optional) & Condition:
If you are dry-hopping, this is the time to do it. Just as the active fermentation is finishing (e.g., around days 3-5), add your hops (10-30g recommended). Adding them at this stage means the remaining active yeast will consume any oxygen introduced when you open the fermenter, 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" any off-flavours and allows the hop particles to settle. -
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 Pilsner Blonde.
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. Note: 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.)

We believe great beer starts with the best ingredients. That’s why we searched the world to find the best maltster, selecting only the finest Pilsner malt to create this exceptional hopped wort. We mash these grains and hop them with precision extracts to create a clean, balanced foundation. To lock in all the fresh, delicious flavour, we gently reduce this wort and can it fresh on-site.

The ATF Belgian Blonde is easy drinking with a low, but pleasing hop bitterness. It has a target ABV of 7.3%, with subtle restrained spicy, fruity, and alcohol flavours supported by a grainy, slightly sweet Pilsner malt character and pleasant noble hop flavour and aroma. High carbonation and a medium body can contribute to a slightly creamy overall mouthfeel.
This beer will benefit from a two week (or more) period of cold conditioning.
Yeast is not included in the kit. We recommend using Mangrove Jack's Belgian Ale yeast, or you could also try Fermentis SafAle BE-256 or Lallemand Abbaye.
Base Malt
Also known as: Pale and/or Lager Malt
Gladfield Pilsner Malt is made from English and European bred barley varieties. Only plump low-protein barley are used to make our Pilsner Malt. This style of barley produces higher extracts and helps eliminate potential protein haze issues in the beer.
Our carefully controlled kilning gives a clean malty character without adding too much colour. Pilsner or Lager Malt can be used to produce ales as well as lagers. This malt does have sufficient diastatic power to convert the addition of 10–20% coloured malts to the mash, but it is not designed for large amounts of unmalted adjuncts.
Brewers should also note that it is important that the mash pH is controlled properly to obtain the best efficiencies and outcomes in the finished beer.
Use: As a base malt for any beer style. It is light in colour and imparts a sweet, clean flavour when brewed.

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 Jolly Monk is a strong blonde, slightly gold beer with a malty aroma and a creamy mouthfeel. It has a delicate sweet malty taste with a moderate bitterness and a fantastic complex marriage of spice, fruity esters, phenolics and alcohol.
Yeast is not included in the kit. We recommend using Mangrove Jack's Belgian Tripel yeast or you could also try Fermentis SafAle BE-256 or Lallemand Abbaye.
You will also require dextrose to make this beer.:
- 24L - 330g
- 48L - 660g
Rich and complex with aromas of deep, inviting roasted dark espresso and rich cocoa, beautifully intertwined with dark caramel sweetness and hints of dried fruit underpinned by a subtle, intriguing earthy spice.
The generous use of rye and oats creates a beautifully velvety smooth and full-bodied mouthfeel with a decadently creamy yet never heavy experience, crowned by a dense, persistent head.
Clean bitterness and the faintest background whispers of soft citrus and floral notes provide just enough structure to frame the immense malt profile without ever stealing the spotlight. An indulgent stout defined by its opulent malt complexity, captivating roast character, and luxurious velvety texture.
Yeast is not included in the kit. We recommend using Froth Rudeboy (Assumed Origin: Youngs Brewery) or Mangrove Jack's Empire Ale yeast. You could also try Mangrove Jack's Liberty Bell yeast.
The ATF Old School APA is a classic American Pale Ale from days gone by. It has a deep punchy hoppiness with dank, earthy, and herbal tones blended with a floral citrus character on a layered caramel malt base with a dry finish accentuated by a firm smooth bitterness.

Base Malt
Newly developed from an old world style malt, our German Pilsner Malt is the perfect base to use with Ales and Lagers. We start with high nitrogen, plump spring barley that goes through our traditional long germination process, followed by a light kilning. This malt is designed to lauter well as well as provide a solid extract. It also allows the brewer to add in flavour and manipulate the final result. We call it here at the maltings, the ‘marshmallow malt’, sweet but no flavour. The higher protein barley will maintain a lot of medium chain proteins that provide both body and head retention. The flavour of this malt is crisp, clean and refreshing with a lovely pale straw colour. Recommend to use this malt when brewers are looking for a clean, non‑biscuity flavour to the finish of the beer.
Use: Base malt for any beer style, light in colour with a clean sweet flavour.
