First homebrew

[kurticide]

Well had a go at my first homebrew , just a coopers extract kit (larger)

Been bottle conditioning for about a week so still has a while to go,couldn't resist just having a little look/taste of it lol

Looks good mate let it sit for a few weeks and let it mature more and it will be good. I did the coopers real ale kit a few weeks back and it came out OK, I am just waiting for the pale ale I made to finish carbonating and for the yeasty taste to go away as it has only been in the bottles for one week. I used a black rock pale ale kit and added light dry malt extract and some hops to get the hop flavors into it seeing you only get the hop bitterness in the concentrate kits, plus I bought a different ale yeast to use with the pale ale instead of the supplied yeast.
