ESB (Extra Special Bitter) - 5.25 US Gallon Malt Extract Beer Recipe Kit with Specialty Grains

Overview
Customer Reviews

This recipe kit creates a malty and somewhat bitter English ale with great drinkability. It features notes of caramel, with the emphasis on bitterness. A fruity character from the yeast esters comes through, balanced by the floral hops. As this is a recipe kit it does not contain alcohol, it includes ingredients required to brew your own. It is designed for homebrewers seeking a flavourful and well-balanced English ale.

All Recipe Kits Include Crushed Grains, Hops, and Yeast

Delicious

I'm a big fan of ESBs and this one certainly didn't disappoint. It was a real crowd pleaser too which I wasn't expecting. Definitely recommend it to ESB fans.

So Very Good

I messed this one up, forgetting to add the pound of dextrose so it came out a little light. Despite this, it was delicious. If there weren't so many kits to try I would brew this again immediately. Might be my favourite kit.

Pretty Good

its not as bitter as i like a bitter but i think that was my mistake making it in imperial volume on accident, still turned out excellent, tasty brew 5.5% was my final ABV but that was my fault will brew this properly next time.

Nice Beer

That beer is easy to brew and easy to drink. It's a good transition from Ale to IPA.
