Hurricane Alex Rain Water Beer, finally the taste testing! Also on tap Coopers Selection Wheat Beer canned kit beer taste testing.
After getting a fresh Coopers English Bitter kit from makebeer.net and it turned out fine, but tasting it in tandem with commercially bottled Coopers revealed I simply do not like the Pride of Ringwood hops that Coopers uses, I now needed to test a Coopers kit from my local brewshop. I’d made Coopers kits purchased from my local brewshop some time ago and they turned out poorly. Ruling out the hop bittering, was it my fermentation temperatures or was I getting damaged kits (shipped or stored to hot making them go bad before their expiration date) from my local brewshop? We finally find out in this video.
The bottom line in all homebrew beer making is if you, your family & friends like it, you’ve made a successful beer. Anyone who tells you differently isn’t, uh, well, honestly, isn’t anything.
Cheers, have a homebrew!
Please take the time to give me a thumbs-up on this video, and thank you very much for watching.

All the equipment you’d need to start homebrewing your own beer.
This is a taste test of the recent Scottish Export 80 home brew kit that I got from JOMalone3113. This was a partial extract home brew kit, meaning that it contained the same malt extract you would normally get in a canned kit, plus the fresh grains that beer is always made of. Keep in mind that most beer that you buy is made from malt extract. Using fresh grains when making your home brew adds a killer fresh taste that is similar to your favourite micro brewed beer.
This is a double taste test of the Cooper’s Lager brewed with maple syrup and the Cooper’s Dark Ale, which was kegged.
Just me brewing some beer, a video I have thought about making since i first started on YT.
The debate between extract vs. all grain is over. These are two totally different ways of making beer, and they will yield different results. But, the fact is, most beginners don’t want a complicated procedure. If they gain confidence from kit brewing, they are likely to go on to more advanced methods. Extract brewing has it’s place in the arena, and there is no debate as far as I’m concerned. 
A few things to get off my chest.
And finally here it is,my first home brew video. I apologize that it is in two parts,but I had a lot of difficulty trying to cut it down to under ten minutes. I hope some of you gain something from this video and I do hope you enjoy it,If you have any questions feel free to ask i’ll do my best,there are things I probably forgot to mention. Other then that thanks for watching. Cheers
Here we have a taste of the Black Rock beer kit we brewed earlier.
Easy home brewing a Black Rock Pilsener canned beer kit. This is called extract brewing, or “kit” brewing.
