Muntons Continental Gold Pilsner

[neilb]

I'm looking at brewing a decent lager/pilsner over the coming winter in readiness for the spring. Just wondering what this kit is like, anyone tried it?

Never tried this. I've only done a few kit lagers and the only one I rated was the Coopers Pilsner, and that needed some time to age.
The Muntons kit you posted gets some great reviews and its also on sale over at BUK for £20.92

Did you brew this one in the end?
I'm thinking once my stout is bottled, this will be the next kit i try.

No I didn't in the end, I brewed a Woodforde's Bure Gold as my "summer drink" so we'll see what that is like in a couple of months

Does anyone know if this kit comes with lager yeast or a generic ale yeast?

 

[Fazzer]

It comes with a lager yeast.

Nice one, thanks mate

I have used these in the past before my AG days and the results were ok and the process is certainly hassle free.
From memory, my favourite kits were from the “Festival world beer” range

so FWIW this came out really well for me. I let it sit for 3 weeks as specified, but its definately better a few days later.
