This has to be one of my favourites to date. Which means I'm either easily pleased and happy with the end result, or, I need to do some experiment with some more kits. I think the latter sounds better :lol:

I liked this that much I've decided to do another brew :)

I found it quite hoppy once it was done. At £9.50 it might be worth doing one batch following the instructions and then do another with added hops if your taste buds feel the need for it.

I stayed with what the instructions stated and it has turned out pretty good. A lot stronger than my last brew that was UBC surfers reward. It's not what I would class as a session beer as it's too strong but none the less is still a good beer for the money.

Can't go wrong for less than a £10. That's equivalent to 3 pints in my local ....

Sounds like the perfect time to start a brew with an active toddler and pregnant wife :eek: :smile: I started a Wherrys on Saturday but just with the kit. SG was 1050 in the FV aka bucket with lid (non air lock). Initially I thought it was going to pop the lid and overflow but it soon...

Decided to give it a go after just posting this. Transferred it from the FV to PB after 3 weeks. Had a quick taste as you do. It was quite nice. Can't wait for this to be ready :cheers:

In case anyone is interested and looking to do one of these .... It's been in the PB for 3 weeks. Tried some today as I'd also PB a John Bull IPA and set up a new one of Wherry in the FV. Tasted nice but was very flat. Had a quick search and have now resealed the Surfers PB as it pin...

Thanks for the link. Might have to pop down :thumb:

Put it in the PB yesterday. Tried some at the same time. A bit cloudy as expected although the taste was pleasant and had a honey taste - to me it did but my son said different. I didn't do a hydrometer reading before, but did one yesterday and it was 1010.

I didn't realise or know the Hop Inn did home brew stuff as I pass that way quite often. I'm near Hook. I took a trip down to Aldershot today for a few bits and pieces. Also popped into Wilkos in Basingstoke as there doing 25% off at the moment.

I had a look at the kit today and will probably give it a go next week. Any pointers or tips before I give it a go?

Hi all. I thought I'd pop in and say Hi and to thank the admin on here for sorting out my problem of registering on here :drink:

Bought this kit and it's now been in the FV for 10 days even though it states 4-6. Temperature has been a constant 17/18 degrees, so it should be ready for the next step soon?
