Q: i love this kit and i have made it twice the last with an extra pound of brewing sugar and it was Great. i was just wondering how i could make it a little more hazy?
A: You could add another couple ounces of hops, although a half pound is already included with the kit. Glad you like it!

Q: Just brewed and started fermenting. I am planning to keg, so reading ahead it says I can or not add priming sugar to my keg when the time comes. Should I keg it and put in the fridge for a week or so before tapping? Or should I add sugar and leave in the keg at room temp? Thanks!
A: If you plan to naturally carbonate (without injecting C02) leave the keg at room temperature for a week or so after kegging and before tapping.

Q: When it says step hops does it mean in a bag or what?
A: The 8 oz. of hops are just dumped into the wort after it has cooled a bit right after the boil. They steep as the wort cools, and then most of them are left behind when you transfer to a fermenter. Using a secondary fermenter or conical can be helpful with this kit, as you will end up with more debris in the primary ferment due to all the loose pellet hops steeping after the boil.

Q: Does the hop addition require a bag for hops?
A: No, they are just dumped into the wort after the boil and stirred.
Good Hazy Starter Beer
This one turned out really nice. I did add an ounce of Citra hops as a dry hop addition. But after bottling and aging for about 6 weeks...it turned out fantastic. It's a delicious citrusy IPA with a fun cloudy golden haze.
Unexpected awesomeness
Brewed this up with my son on a whim. Turned out delicious with a slight tropical/pineapple nuance. Will definitely brew again!
HAZY IPA
Very good! Tropical! I will brew this again.
Best value!
This kit is a great value as it comes with 8 ounces of great hops. Also a Smack Pack of Wyeast. The recipe calls for all 8 ozs to steep at 180 degrees. I did modify the hop additions. I wanted a little more bitter and not as juicy. I actually spaced out the additions and boiled 3 ozs. Steeped 4, and dry hopped 1. Turned out great!
Pow! Best Beer yet
Wow, 1 week after bottling, I couldn't wait. It's got a head, nice legs, hazy, and best Williams Brewing ale I have ever made since the early 90s. Better than any hazy from the store, and I've had a lot. I think the only thing better was fresh from Russian River in Cal, right from the brewery, and Heady Topper from Vermont. Yummers! Thanks, Williams! Bring us some CIDER some day!
