Folks,
There is a nice shipment coming today for me to brew a AG Requiem Raspberry with my GF this weekend, so I will have a good Saturday. Normally, since switching to AG, I make my own recipes or off the database here. However, I am running out of aroma/flavor hops in my fridge and saw a deal come across my email from NB for this morning. 3 kits @ $19.99. Compared to MRSP they are a deal, but I am pretty sure it is still cheaper to make from scratch (a la carte) versus the kits. A tactic I might use it to find the kits with the most hops to try to maximize my purchase. Try to hit the dead ringer, karma citra, and a toss-up between Grapefruit/Chinook/Saison for a good stash of summer brew.
Provided a grain bill is around $10-14 for all (base and specialty), add in hops, and it is likely close to $15-19. Different styles will bring different specifics, but overall just wondering if I should go this route.
Also wondering if these are getting close to expiration...? They would all be brewed by mid-may likely.
Thoughts?
Dead Ringer All-Grain
Grapefruit Pulpin All-Grain
Kama Citra All-Grain
Chinook IPA All-Grain
Kolsch All-Grain Kit
Caribou Slobber All-Grain
