American Amber Homebrew Beer Ingredient Kit

I always add some extra corn sugar for an alcohol boost and hops for extra aroma and flavor. Good solid Amber Ale Kit.

Was easy to brew and all the ingredients are included . I added some raspberries to the second fermenter and it came out delicious.

Great product and it turned out great.

fast service and willing to deliver to my address unlike some vendors. great tasting brew

Have been a home winemaker 40 years so not a total novice but first time brewing. Was an entertaining and enjoyable experience. I bought this particular one because I enjoy amber and most dark beers and because it was priced at a level I didn't consider exorbitant. The result is a nice flavor with about .045 alcohol. It is nothing like amber in color. It is more the color of oiled walnut. I followed directions completely so it was nothing incorrectly done. I m trying another product but may do another of this down the road.

If you are not looking for an all grain batch, this is a pretty good one.

Fun to make

I did a quick look at the kit offerings, and calculated about $40 worth of beer making items; good value at $30 on Amazon. I'll re-post later as to the quality and freshness of the kit ingredients; also how it tastes after I brew it. I'ts nice getting a hop bag, and bottle caps as a bonus.This kit took me about 90 minutes in my kitchen after I prepped everything, really easy. Update (3-1-18): The beer turned out well. It was light middle of the road brew, with moderate hops and decent mouth feel. This kit is a good base for making a larger beer; just add more malt and hops. I'm glad I purchased this kit. It was really easy to make; grains were already measured and cracked.

Seems good so far. I really like the brewers best kits. The only thing I don't like is that the beers seem very dark in color. I assume that's because they use a liquid malt extract. Maybe it will lighten up as it ages? I'll update my review on taste etc when my beer is finished.

I'll update after the beer is bottled, as to the taste and clarity of this amber lager. However, the instructions clearly calls for 2 packets of Willamette hops, added to the boiling wort 1/2 hour apart. My kit came with only one package. I really hope it doesn't negatively impact the finished product, but as it sits now, I'm not thrilled at getting an incomplete kit.
