  • Turned Out Great
Color: Caribou Slobber Brown Ale
I bought this with some trepidation about whether I could really make beer that was good. I've cooked for years and always follow new recipes exactly the first time. So I approached this the same way and followed the instructions exactly. After I put the beer in the fermenter I wasn't really sure what to expect. It started bubbling the 2nd day and a large foam formed on top of the liquid. After a week the bubbling had completely stopped the foam subsided. I had the fermenter in a cabinet in my basement which was around 68F. The next week there wasn't much to see as it lay looking dormant. At 2 weeks I bottled the beer. A week and a half later I tried one of the beers and it tasted great with a good head on the beer. It tasted to me very similar to Big Sky's Moose Drool. I will definitely be making more beers. Norther Brewer's kit was great. I made sure to tighten the spigot and test it for leaks. I had to put quite a bit of pressure to get it tight enough. I did mess up a couple of bottle caps before I got the feel and now it's pretty easy. I highly recommend this. ... show more

  • Good introduction to brewing
Color: Caribou Slobber Brown Ale
I had signed up to take a beer making class, but when the class was cancelled, I still wanted to try something on my own. This kit turned out to be a perfect introduction to brewing. The directions were very easy to follow, and the finished product was pretty respectable for a first try. I'm happy with it anyway. I have to agree with the other reviewers that the siphon sucks, but in the bad sort of way, not the literal way. I ended up buying a new siphon in between the brewing and the bottling process to avoid having to use the included one a second time. Even with that problem, I thought the kit was a great introduction to the brewing process. ... show more

  • Customer Service
Color: Kama Citra IPA
Received the glass little big mouth bubbler and contents to make the IPA. Unfortunately when filling the bubbler with HOT tap water (per the directions), it cracked. Given this is a glass item, this stuff happens, but was disappointing. What was NOT disappointing was the excellent customer service I received when I contacted the seller. They responded back to me promptly and replaced the glass bubbler with a plastic one. Further they provided me with additional hops content as we had started the process (not sure how the original one will come out given I only had a 5 gallon bucket handy for 1 gallon of beer!). I am very pleased with the courteous tone, the quick response, and the fact that this company went above and beyond what I was hoping for. I would recommend this kit (with the plastic bubbler) to anyone. The directions are easy, and it was really a fun process! ... show more

  • Cracked fermenter
Color: American Wheat
When I checked the fermenter this morning to see if the bubbling had started in the airlock, I found a little bit of liquid around the outside of the fermenter. When I twisted the spigot to tighten the gasket, it caused more beer to leak out. The glass around the spigot had cracked. Mike immediately reached out and will send a new fermenter and another beer kit. Mike's quick response impressed me. I would gladly purchase from Northern Brewer in the future. ... show more

  • Great beer kit for beginners!
Color: Kama Citra IPA
I bought this kit last year so my boyfriend and I could attempt to brew our own beer. The kit is great, and we used both the provided written instructions as well as their youtube video to work through the steps. The beer turned out great! We eventually moved across the country and had to leave this kit behind, but we recently purchased one of their five gallon brew kits to start making a larger amount of beer. We will review that kit once we have our beer ready! ... show more

  • Turned out not great
Color: Kama Citra IPA
Instructions were fairly easy to follow and made about 9 beers. Unfortunately it turned out kinda weird. Technically drinkable but not good, some weird off flavors. I wonder if it's because of chlorine in my water? My water normally tastes great so I felt fine using it. Would have been nice if they included a Camden tablet or something. ... show more

  • Amazing kit packed full of everything you need, plus awesome customer service!
Color: Caribou Slobber Brown Ale
I bought this as a gift for my husband and he’s OBSESSED! He’s already made the recipe included and is researching more recipes for his next batch. He was super impressed that it came with so much in the kit, we literally didn’t need to buy anything else. (Our popcorn maker was the perfect size pot lol!) The siphon was cracked (it still did the job) so he messaged customer service and within a day they had a new one shipped out. We were so impressed with it all!!! I can’t say how good the beer is yet, but will update once he tries that first sip! If you’ve been endlessly researching different kits like I did, stop right now and buy this one!!! ... show more

  • No customer service from northern brewer
Color: Irish Red Ale
The lid for the fermenter doesn't create an airtight seal so this is pretty much useless. Also the hole for the stopper is flimsy and the stopper pushes right through the hole. Contacted northern brewer and they refused to help. Thankfully Amazon is correcting the situation.
