And because Northern Brewer was built by homebrewers for homebrewers. When founder Chris Farley first opened the doors in 1993, life was different. Wine coolers were cool. And craft beer wasn’t even born yet. At Northern Brewer, we started out with just one mission: To help our fellow homebrewers make great beer. Even though times have changed, our mission hasn’t. And because of that, we’ve grown from that tiny storefront to become the largest homebrewing and winemaking supplier in America.

Awesome way to get into home brewing!
Size: Chinook IPA with Testing Equipment
This is the BEST kit for beginners! The instructions were very clear and easy to follow. All the equipment provided worked perfectly (buckets are quality and don't leak!). Our first beer turned out surprisingly well considering it was the first time we EVER brewed our own beer. It was well carbonated and stayed fresh long enough for us to distribute to friends. We made the IPA from the Northern Brewer kit and we got alot of great feedback on taste. Our second beer we made was not Northern Brewer but we used all the same equipment and came out with another quality beer. So glad I bought this kit! ... show more

You will either brew once and never brew again OR this beginner kit will kick off the start to a great hobby. Everything you need to get started.

Great project lots of fun
Size: Chinook IPA with Testing Equipment
When it says brew day it means day!!! When it says bottling day it means day!!! You will spend 4+ hours on brew day as a beginning and about the same for bottling day. The rest of the time requires patience. I left it to ferment and extra 11 days because it was still producing and my alcohol content came out to 5.9% before I added the primer sugar for carbonating in the bottles. It’s great to have a friend standing around watching you figure out everything (you could say they are a helper but it really isn’t that way you can do it in your own it’s just a lot more fun it’s a friend, plus when you stink up the kitchen on brew day your wife won’t be as harsh about making the house smell like a brewery. LoL Oh also when it says use half a bag of hops then save the rest for later put the rest in a zip lock bag to add later. When you add the hoops later be very careful to not allow much air in try to keep it as controlled as possible by only cracking the lid to add the last of the hops. I also used 25oz flip top bottles that I washed and reused. Originally they had organic lemonade, I think beer is a huge upgrade... ... show more

Missing the siphon, but otherwise a great starter kit
Size: Chinook IPA with Testing Equipment
Although you might get all the parts for lower when bought individually, I decided to pay the price to save myself the trouble. The kit is fine but was incomplete in my case. Watched the videos and printed instructions. Process was easy. Still waiting that the beer is ready to drink.

A great no frill, beginner kit
Size: Chinook IPA with Testing Equipment
I had the Chinook IPA brewing started in no time as instructions were easy to follow. There was an issue with the label of malt extract as the instruction called for 6lbs but label said 3lbs. I texted Northen Brewer and they quickly confirm with me that it was in fact 6lbs, just label was printed wrong. I then followed the steps and soon enough i had the wort in the fermenter, about 3hrs later. And 3 weeks later i had a great tasting beer to share with friends and family. Likes: Easy to follow instructions. All ingredients for a tasty IPA are included. Great customer service Dislikes: Maybe better kettle, as the one provided is very thin. ... show more

This set works wonders

I’m on my tenth batch currently 👍👍 It’s been the ship on which I sail through the craft of unique ale-brewing. Note that the capper does not work with Pilsner Urquell bottles

Great Gift - Great Customer Service
Size: Chinook IPA with Testing Equipment
I bought this for my boyfriend for Christmas, as he's always wanted to brew his own beer. I also bought him a book for beginners, since he is very technical and needs everything to be perfect. He brewed the CHINOOK IPA and it turned out pretty good. He since then has went to our local beer store to make another IPA. I messaged the company after the first time using this, when the tube to transfer the beer into the bottles was leaking. I asked if they could send a replacement and they sent a full new brewing kit. They were extremely helpful and sent this out right away. Thank you for a lovely gift! ... show more
