Mr. Beer St. Patrick's Irish Stout Refill Brew Pack,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Mr. Beer St. Patrick's Irish Stout Refill Brew Pack (Kitchen)
I waited for my Mr. Beer St. Patrick's Irish Stout to fully condition and tried it before writing a review on this Refill Brew Pack. First of all, if you brewed this refill pack "as is" using the Irish Stout hopped malt extract and the Booster (dextrose), and you will get a pretty good, albeit light beer with an estimated 3.7% ABV. However, if you added the Creamy Brown unhopped malt extract (available at mrbeer.com), you'll get a much more flavorful and delicious beer. For this batch, I included the Irish Stout HME, Creamy Brown UME, Booster, and a cup of honey to boost up the alcohol by volume to 6.9%. I let the beer ferment for three weeks at room temperature and carbonate in the bottles for 5 weeks. The beer had the color of black coffee, had nice carbonation, and tasted great! The refill pack sold here can be used as a base for many recipes available on Mr. Beer's website. Happy brewing!

A pure, basic, solid and excellent sweet stout,

This review is from: Mr. Beer St. Patrick's Irish Stout Refill Brew Pack (Kitchen)
Admittedly, we tasted the results two days before it was fully conditioned.
The malty baked-grain flavor was superior. The beer was earthy, very flavorful, hearty -- everything I'd expect from a solid stout. The carbonation was very light, and there was almost NO hop character. In the many dozens of stouts I've had, from the macro Guinness to USA, European and African micro-brewers to home-brewers, this ranked a 7.5-out-of-ten -- and I am very picky! Definitely something I'll purchase again. (Probably repeatedly) Worth the time, worth the price, worth the taste.

Great beer,

I love beer. When I started brewing by myself with Mr. Beer I was afraid my beer would not taste good. Well, my beer tastes very good and this dark beer is one of my favorites. I certainly recommend it!
