The League "/alt/beer" - Dusseldorf Altbier All Grain Kit 23l
This recipe was not specifically designed to be consistent with the BJCP style guides, but we believe it is similar to 07B - Altbier.
Alt beer is a malty, amber coloured German ale made exclusively in Düsseldorf. It's highly sessionable with a beautiful malty, slightly roasty flavour and a very clean fermentation character.

The League "Mad Sweeney" - Irish Red Ale All Grain Kit 23l
This recipe was not specifically designed to be consistent with the BJCP style guides, but we believe it is similar to 15A - Irish Red Ale.
Our take on an Irish red ale. A mix of Golden Promise and wonderfully fresh Gladfield specialty malts, combined with Goldings Hops and fermented with an English ale yeast results in malty complexity with a touch of fruity esters and a classic English hop flavour.
A beer made to drink by the pint.

The League "Barnes' Stormer" - ESB All Grain Kit 23l
This recipe was not specifically designed to be consistent with the BJCP style guides, but we believe it is similar to 11C - Strong Bitter.
Some days are harder than others. You might not have bullet holes in your bomber after trying to take out a Nazi dam, since, you know, the war is over. Still, you maybe had the modern equivalent to that for suburban Dads. This beer is for those days. It's Extra Special. We believe it's one of the tastiest ESB's we've come across in a long while.
Maris Otter base with just the right amount of specialty malts, Target & Golding Hops for that English flavour, fermented with a dry English strain.
Brew it, do yourself a favour.
Target ABV: 5.8%

The League "George" - Best Bitter All Grain Kit
This recipe was not specifically designed to be consistent with the BJCP style guides, but we believe it is similar to 11B - Best Bitter.
This is an English Strong Bitter. Strong is relative by modern standards, it's under 5% ABV! Enjoy the classic flavour of complex malt with fruitiness from the English yeast and floral & earth notes from the hops. A great session beer! This beer is a tribute to the footballer George Best, look him up and the anecdotes around him - he is a true legend!
Target ABV: 4.9%

The League "Firefly" - American Amber Ale Recipe Kit (All Grain)
This recipe has been designed to be consistent with the 2021 BJCP Style guide 19A - American Amber Ale.
Firefly is an American Amber Ale recipe designed for The League of Brewers by Jamie McQuillan of Cell Division Brewery.
American Amber Ales are a modern style originating from the early 1980’s, and their advent offered a welcome variation from regular American Pale Ales. The style is open to a range of interpretations, with the balance ranging from a focus on the caramel malts with gentle hopping, through to more assertively hopped and bitter versions verging on the Red IPA territory. This recipe sits comfortably somewhere in the middle of this spectrum.
The malty notes of caramel and toasted bread support a firm bitterness along with moderate levels of those classic American piney, resinous and citrusy hops. Pouring with a lovely amber hue, bright clarity and lasting off white head, it’s perfect for when you feel like a refreshingly hoppy beer with a little more to chew on.
