Add Brewing Sugar

All beer kits require a brewing sugar to reach the correct ABV. You may choose to add this to your cart now if desired. Dextrose gives you a clean dry result, Flavour Booster adds extra head retention and mouthfeel, and Dry Malt Extract adds the most authentic malt flavours.

Grain Infusion (Optional)

A grain infusion adds extra malt flavour to the beer. Try Cara-malt or Crystal for pale beers, and Roasted Barley or Chocolate Malt for dark beers. Steep with boiled water for 10 minutes before adding to the brew.

Finishing Hops (Optional)

Finishing hops add extra hop flavour and aroma to the beer. Steep the hop “tea bag” with boiled water for 5 minutes before adding the tea and the tea bag to the brew.

Yeast Upgrade (Optional)

Upgraded yeasts have more desirable fermentation properties. Try “Safale US-05” for a clean dry flavour in Australian or American ales, “Safale S-04” for malty flavour and body in British beers, “Saflager” yeasts for clean lagers, “Safbrew T58” for Belgian ales and “Safbrew WB-06” for Bavarian wheat beers.

$25.00

This Classic Dry Lager kit comes complete with Pacific lager yeast. This light-coloured, refreshing lager has a good malt sweetness balanced by a mild hop bitterness and a clean, dry finish to quench a real thirst.

For a Dry Lager add 1.5kg Light malt extract or 1kg dextrose.

For more flavour, dry-hop with 30g or more of NZ hops like Riwaka, Nelson Sauvin or Motueka for a stonefruit and citrus flavours, or Australian hops like Galaxy or Vic Secret for tropical fruit flavours.
