Just use the kit.I just used the kit and the yeast it came with. I brewed it with 1.5kg of dextrose and kept it at 23 Deg C for 6 days and kegged it. Force carbonated it and it turned out very well. |

Definitely and Aussie LagerBrewed the kit with 1kg dex/maltodex (BE1), a hallterau hop bag and S-189 lager yeast. Fermented at 12degC for 3 weeks and warmed upto 18degC for a few days at end. After 2 months in the bottle it is a golden colour, good head and carbonation. Taste is a mix between euro and aussie lager. Probably a good kit for those who like New/VB/Crown etc. Not a good base for a euro lager. Still nice clean beer with no hint of homebrew taste. Would rate higher if I wanted a real Aussie lager. |

Good one!Second timne around for this kit, and I think I got it right this time. Made on 22 Jan 2010: Started with .5lb of 10L crystal;removed grains just as they came to the boil, added .5oz of Hallertau, boiled for 15 minutes, then added another .5oz of Hallertau for 5 more minutes; added Heritage Lager kit and one can of Coopers light LME. Pitched Saflager S23 when cooled, 23 litres. Racked on 17 February and kegged on 6 March. Cracked the keg this week - oh my, I am very, very pleased! |

Hertiage LagerCoopers Heritage Lager + Brewer's Choice Ultra Brew (LDM+Dex+Corn Syrup Solid). Kit yeast worked nicely. Fermented at 13C for 3 weeks. Tasted at 1month. Very clean and smooth due to the low fermentation temp. Not sure if I'd muck around with this one. It will please the general public and I find it a nice change from full-bodied ales... |

For the best, hop it!Brewed this 3 times, 3 ways. fermentables per instructions. Much better with low temp fermentation - have used White labs WLP830 and Saflager W34/70 at 12 and 14C resp. Without added hop it's a bit bland, so used Hersbrucker 14g plug(s) in the latter 2 brews, steeped for aroma or boiled for bitterness; both help make this a delicious lager, probably the best of the half dozen I've tried. |

Great BeerI do a low carb , mid strength with enzyme and dextrose (500g) and feel this is the best lager on the market. I have tried most. |

the backbone of my brewsI love this one. Straight kit as per directions and you really can't go wrong. A balanced interesting lager floral and fresh. Can be modified but only for your own tastes - no need to modify really. |

very easyA fine drop I've made it 10-15 times. It's sweet up front with a nice bitter aftertaste. I tend to use it to try different hops . I've done P.O.R., golden cluster, cascade , Mt Hood, northern brewer, hallertau & Green bullet. The best results are P.O.R. & Hallertau but all have been very good. |

Not bad for quaffingMade this kut with 1.5kg light malt and 300g dextrose to get a little extra alcohol content. Tasted this beer after two months and thought it was rubbish. I ended up leaving it for about 5 months before trying again and what a difference those extra months made. Reminded me a lot of James Boags Premium. Very drinkable! |

Coopers HeritageBrewed this with 1kg of Light DME and used Wyeast Munich Lager. Fermented at 14C for 10 days then CCed for 2 weeks at 2C. One word springs to mind," Bland". I think this beer should have had some dry hopping to give it a bit of punch. |

Coopers Heritage LagerMade with 1kg Esb Malt extract and supplied yeast. fermented at 13c for two weeks. added 15g Hersbrucker hops in secondary. Cold conditioned for 3 weeks. Kegged. It was a little dark for a lager. Quite hoppy. Not sure what it was but i didnt like this one at all. However, this kit aside the other Thomas Coopers kits are all up there with the best. |

Best of this rangeBest of the Thomas Cooper's range. Brewed with 500gms Dextose, 500gms LME, 200gms Maltodextrin. Nice balance between malt and hops. Goes quite well using yeast supplied. Gets close to its best by 3 months. One of my fav's! |

Nice summer sipperI made this to spec using supplied yeast, can of Coopers LME and can of extract. Not a real lot of body to it but nice flavour (for an extract beer) and a good one for knocking a couple back on a warm night. |

Better with Saflager yeastUsaully make this with 1 to 1 1/2kg Muntons light dme depending on alc vol I want to end up with.I only brew this in cooler weather at under 18deg and last one used Saflager yeast. Turned out quite good and now i can cold condition the next one should be better. Dry hop with 15gr Hallettau pallets in secondary . |
