Default Festa Brew Brown Ale

Anyone ever make the Festa Brew Brown Ale?

I just picked it up for the hell of it and was wondering if anyone has had it

Default Fast Beer

Cool thanks for the feedback. I just made it today so hopefully it turns out pretty good. Usually I like bitters and pale ales but I figured I would try a change with a fast kit.

That was pretty much my last kit. I just got the last of my gear to do my first mini-mash so soon I'll be on my way.

Thanks,
Marc

I've done 3 festa brew kits (one red, one amber, one pilsner) and they all looked and tasted almost exactly the same, for whatever reason. I've heard they're 100% better if you use vial yeast instead of dry yeast, though I've never tried it myself.
