This recipe was not specifically designed to be consistent with the BJCP style guides, but we believe it is similar to 05B - Kölsch.

Kölsch (or Kolsh or Kolsch for people afraid of dots above the o) is a traditional German blonde Ale from Cologne. It's so easy to drink that waiters in Cologne put a line on the edge of your coaster to keep up the count when serving you fresh one, and it's not unheard of to make those lines go full circle. To be fair, Kölsch is traditionally served in 0.2l glasses to drink it always fresh.

The malt bill is as simple as they come: Weyermann Cologne malt (and some acid malt for pH).

This kit comes with 2 packs of the new Kolsh dry yeast by Lallemand.

This recipe has been designed to use acid malt to reach the target mash pH. If you wish to use the recommended mineral additions to achieve the intended flavour profile, these are to be added to the boil only. This kit does not include the minerals, but these can be purchased separately.

This recipe was not specifically designed to be consistent with the BJCP style guides, but we believe it is similar to 25A - Belgian Blond Ale.

Belgian style beers feel very hard to find these days. If you're like us and enjoy the fantastic unique flavours a Belgian yeast can produce, you really start to miss one in the sea of hazy's out there. Brew one yourself!

This Belgian Golden Ale will remind you of a Leffe Blond - bubblegummy with a hint of spice on the nose, sweet malt but dry enough on the finish to make you take the next sip. 

We've created the recipe so you can decide if and how much sugar you want to add. It's more authentic if you add the suggested amount of sugar to the boil - or you can lower the ABV by leaving it out - up to you!

Target ABV: 6.2% - 6.9%

This recipe has been designed to be consistent with the 2021 BJCP Style guide 21A - American IPA.

SMASHadelic is a Single Malt And Single Hop IPA recipe designed for The League of Brewers by Jamie McQuillan of Cell Division Brewery.

SMASH IPAs are an ideal way to get to know the character of a hop, so we thought what better way to celebrate the recent release of New Zealand Hops’ exciting new variety Superdelic™. This recipe allows the hop’s unique oil character to shine by incorporating just enough supporting malt character from Maris Otter, with a clean crisp fermentation profile.

Coming in at 6.6% abv, this recipe provides the perfect backdrop for experiencing the range of flavours and aromas of red fruit, candy, citrus and tropical fruit, characteristic of this new hop. So go on, grab yourself a kit and smash it out of the park.

Our first beer we sold at our shop and it flew out the door. We kinda thought it would, since it's damn tasty. Originally brewed with big load of freshly picked Nelson Sauvin, we believe this kit with hop pellets that are available year round will be equally tasty. Give it a try and see if you agree!
