Product details

If you can't buy it, why not make it? Taking its flavor cue from one of the most sought after beers in the world, Northy 12 is an amazingly complex treat. Its deep ruby - mahogany hue is the canvas for flavors of raisins, caramel sweetness, and tart dark fruits, as its smooth and luscious body fades into a lingering dry finish.

Northy 12 is cloaked with a silky, lacy and firm off white head exuding a montage of toffee, honey, caramel, and phenolic aromas. If you can display the patience of a monk and abstain from immediate consumption, aging will do wonders for this beer.

Great Beer Kit

This will be my second go at brewing this one. The first one was outstanding, but took a while to get there, as you might expect. The recipe directions were NOT enough time, in my experience, but I likely had fermentation issues that needed to be worked out, so I'm not knocking the review for that. I started opening it at 6 months in the bottle, and it was really hot and definitely not ready. At a year, it was good, but not great. I figured "good" was as good as it got, so I drank/gave away most of it at that point. Boy, was I wrong. The bottles I had set aside for the 2-year birthday of the beer were spectacular. I'll be holding this batch in bottles for two full years this time to make sure it peaks, and likely putting a few away to try it at three years. Give this one time and it will reward you richly.

Smooth, rich beer very similar to those consumed in Belgium and Holland. Family members have enjoyed as much as I enjoyed providing. I plan to brew again next Winter.

One of my favorites. Already have another kit waiting for space in the fermenting fridge.

Apparently a Nice Extract Kit

Received kit quickly, it was complete. Instructions were very clear but didn't discuss need to be ready for extremely aggressive fermentation & blowoff. Recommend using Fermcap-S and a large fermentation container. Also, start fermentation at the low end of the yeast recommended temperature range. I'll know how it tastes in 6 months.
