Essential Beer Making Starter Kit Recipe Options:

Pale Ale
For fans of craft beer, a recipe like this one is likely very familiar. The classic American Pale Ale gave rise to what we consider craft beer today, and many define it to be the original American craft beer style. Perfectly balanced malt and hop character paired with a clean fermentation profile gives this recipe rich flavor, moderate bitterness, and an approachable alcohol content while maintaining supreme drinkability and satisfaction. View recipe instructions.

American Brown Ale
If big flavors are your style, look no further! Overlapping layers of elaborate caramel, dark chocolate and faint coffee malt flavors satisfy the palate and relent to an unexpected hop presence characteristic of American ales. This beer finishes with an impressive balance of flavor and refreshment making it perfect to pair with nearly any dish. View recipe instructions.

Bier Hall Blonde Wheat
This German-influenced wheat ale is the perfect any-time thirst quencher and a proven crowd-pleaser. Light golden in color and exceptionally crisp, Bier Hall Blonde Wheat is an easy sipper with a moderate body, just a hint of hops, and all the right flavors to bring friends together. View recipe instructions.

Excellent way to get started!

I'm a beginner and have now brewed two 1-gallon batches, the Brown Ale and the German Blonde. I wanted to start with a "foolproof" recipe and this beer making kit did not disappoint me. The instructions are clear & detailed, all the supplies are included, and--based on my first batch--the quality of the ingredients is excellent. I had a couple of questions during my first batch, and Northern Brewer responded quickly. I'm looking forward to more advanced brewing!

1 Gallon Beer Making Kit

Everything arrived as expected and I was glad to order with Northern Brewer. Since then, I ordered other products and was pleased. My only disappointment, was on the delivery end via UPS. The initial times were 10:45-12:45 and got the deliveries in later afternoon, sometimes around 7:00. Try to work on that, it's all part of doing business with Northern Brewer. Thank-you!

First Time a Charm

Everything needed, including easy-to-follow instructions, in the box. NB’s video is instructive and recommended before you start. I was amazed at how good the product was. It might not be top-of-class, but it is eminently drinkable and shareable.

Good brewing XP, but kinda meh beer

So, have been brewing all-grain since 2006 and had to downsize recently so found a way to small batch using extract on the cheap. The process was super easy, instructions were great, unfortunately the little packet of yeast was expired by 3 months but I took a chance. Didn't work so had to go buy a packet locally that took off in less than 6 hrs. Waited my weeks, bottled up and carbonated and opened the first one. It's not terrible, but there's very little depth to it--it's like the shadow of a pale ale. I know extract has its limitations and I'm probably spoiled from all-grain. But I think for a beginner this is an affordable point of entry and for experienced brewers a way to pump out a small batch quickly. I would tinker with the recipe though lol cuz that's what I do and with the smaller batches it's less heartbreak if it doesn't turn out.
