English Brown Ale Extract Recipe. In comparison to the American brown, this English brown has lower hop bitterness, flavour and has a nuttier character. This beer is balanced towards a slightly malty flavour with a dry finish. English hop varieties are used and provide a spicy/earthy hop profile instead of the citrusy aroma/flavour in the American brown.

This simple kit consists of Canadian 2-row extract, crystal, Victory, chocolate and special roast malts. East Kent Goldings hops are used for bittering and flavouring. The provided yeast is S-04 from Fermentis but you can upgrade to WLP002 liquid yeast (if available) from White Labs below. The specialty grains do not come crushed, however if you require this service it is optional, please indicate below your preference.

The ingredient list and instructions will be provided with the kit. This is a beginner/intermediate kit and you must be comfortable with brewing extract with specialty grains to ensure success with this product. Please ensure you have all of the appropriate equipment for extract brewing prior to purchasing this kit. Although we provide instructions, we are not responsible for your brewing technique.
