    MJ Helles Lager kit

    And as to who I am .. I am a 54 yo guy who likes to make stuff, my wine making skills are imo awesome. However, I have been brewing beer,badly, for years, I still drank it but the corny kegs have stepped up my beer to a new level. Hundred quid investment, and the beer is now so good, such a...
