I was sorting through books last may and ran across 2 of my old books I used with my Mr. beer 16 years ago. Bought the mr Beer at sears when I was 18, If i could not buy i would make. I used that and there kits for a fe years and then forgot about it. I decided to do some research online. I looked for a local shop. I work about 15 miles away from the store. I stopped in one day and spent 2 bills on equipment, bottles and kits! I have brewed their Belgian wit, light ale, cream ale, dortmunder, Irish ale, german wheat, american wheat, american IPA. All are excellent except the light ale was too light for me, if you are looking for a bud ight it is perfect. If you want a tasty lighter beer, the dortmunder is amazing. If you like IPA that are not extreme, the american IPA is a great crisp beer. The german wheat is close to a hoogarden. I also did a pumpkin kit from midwest, came out great! Grape and granary people are great! The quiet guy with the beard and glasses that is always working has great knowledge and answers any questions.
