This is the West Coast IPA you remember… I love hazies, but this is a classic style which this kit totally hits on the mark. Buy this and you will not be disappointed.

This kit comes with a TON of hops and they all get put to good use. I've never had Pliny, but this is a great IPA. Folks I have shared it with say it is the best I have made to-date. Not overly hoppy or boozy.

I racked to secondary to dry hop after 2-week primary. 3 weeks of carbonation in the bottle. Turned out amazing. Will be my go-to kit recipe for east coast DIPA.

My 2nd batch and it is one of my favorites so far.

This is an excellent beer

Delicious beer with huge hop presentation. Light amber color with some cloudiness that may further clear. More dank piney hoppiness than citrus, but with grapefruit coming through. Only in the keg for 4 days now. Changing daily to the better with melding of flavors and better mouth feel as carbonation increases. I can't remember Heady Topper very well, but I think it was more citrus. Should be getting some soon to compare and hope to remember to update this review.

After several attempts at a big IPA, this one finally fit the bill. Only changes I made to the recipe were reducing the boil to 60 minutes, and adding half the LME at the beginning, and half at the end. I dry hopped in the primary without a bag, and fined w/ gelatin a couple days prior to kegging. Clarity, aroma, head retention, and flavor are all outstanding with this kit. I'll certainly but it again.

Finished product is a nice American IPA, fruity, piney hop aroma with a very firm bitterness and strong citrusy hop flavor. Very drinkable and medium-light bodied despite my batch finishing at 1.005. MoreBeer, you may want to crush malt a bit finer, as I missed my target OG by quite a bit since I do BIAB. SRM on the higher side. But I can't judge color against Heady Topper as I always drank from the can. I feared beer would be overly bitter due to missing my gravity, but it is on point. Used Omega British Ale V as yeast. It preserved maltiness beautifully while showcasing huge hop aroma and flavor. Excellent recipe and kit!

Excellent ................,.,,,,,

you should include a grain bag and a standard yeast packet with the kit . a list of available yeasts to choose from for the more experienced brewers .also directions for brewing are very general. a little more info for each type of brew would be very helpful.

Would recommend, easy to brew, came out great

I made this as a base to mix with kombucha so I concentrated it to 3 gallons so I could then add the kombucha. The aroma of this beer is incredible! Very much worth the price.

I like it, friends like it, but still needs a little tweaking on my end

The kit is easy to use for a complex recipe. You will be happy with the results with good flavor and aroma for this IPA.
