Pros: excellent ingredient kit compared to others i have brewed.

Cons: the directions enclosed are different than instructions on the packaging as far as fermenting. I followed packaging directions but came up with bad batch anyways. truly disappointed as i was looking forward to this ale

Superb!

Review by David G. on 8/13/2008

Pros: This is an excellent beer. It is rich in flavor and alcohol. Its maltiness is balanced by the hops so it is neither sweet nor bitter. It's perfect for a cold fall day. Especially when enjoyed outside by a fire.

Cons: More expensive, but not without reason.

Great Beer!

Review by Randy D. on 8/5/2008

Pros: Working on drinking my third kit now and enjoying every glass. This is a great rich beer with a smooth caramel flavor that never gives a heavy impression. A little better kick than most makes for a good relaxing eve by the fire. I’ll be back for more.

Cons: Have to hide from friends or it evaporates fast.

Highly Recommended

Pros: Brewed this ale to be ready over the fourth of July. Came out excellent!! Great full bodied taste, not too hoppy. Everyone loved it, was gone before I knew it. Recommend not letting it age too long. Was ready and delicious early in the aging process, doesn't require the full five weeks.

Cons: Goes too quickly.
