Beer Drenched Executioner
Unfortunately I don't think Cooper's makes this kit anymore, unless they just changed the name to "European Lager".
I bought one of the kits at my local homebrew store back about the first week of July.
Brought it home and made it with 3.6# of Light LME that I had left over in the fridge. Fermented it in my refridgerator at 50F for 3 weeks, 2 days diacetyl rest at room temp, no secondary.
I just bottled it last weekend, and opened the first one for a taste a few minutes ago. Not quite carbonated well enough yet, but I gotta tell you this is probably the best extract beer I've ever made so far, and its better than some All Grain recipes I've tried. Its a shame they don't make this kit anymore - if you can find one somewhere I strongly recommend you try it.
For those that don't know which kit I'm talking about here is a link:
Coopers Bavarian Lager
I don't know if Cooper's just renamed the Bavarian Lager to be the European Lager or what, but if you can find one of these kits I'm sure you'll enjoy it. I think its the best Cooper's kit I've tasted so far, and I'm doing my best to make them all eventually.
