Phat Tyre Amber Ale Extract Kit

O.G: 1052 / Ready: 6 weeks

One of the most requested additions to our lineup of beer kits, this is not your typical amber ale—patterned after Belgian-style pale ales, which might be described as slightly less bitter, more fruity versions of English pale ales. Our Phat Tyre kit is copper-red with a fruity, slightly spicy aroma and flavor that comes from a combination of yeast and hops. A blend of caramel and Victory malts creates a sweet, toasty, bready character that lingers from the aroma through the finish. Make sure to stash a six-pack for yourself, because this one's a crowd pleaser.
