All American Light Beer Recipe Kit

After hearing some say they would never drink my "bathtub brew" with the weird names, flavors, and colors other than pale yellow, I decided to go back to basics and make something that could sway their opinions of homebrew. This beer did the trick. Not only did they like it, I know of one who is looking to get his own homebrew kit and join the craft. Light and mildly sweet on the palate, clean and refreshing on the finish. A great beer for craft beer aficionados and those first venturing past the big three.

This is the easiest beer I've ever made . I haven't tried it without the brewvint 1% alcohol boost but i would think it would be a little too light without it. i used a whirlfloc tablet and got a really clear beer. i used Wyeast 1056 American Ale yeast. i would totally do this beer again and it will stay in my kegerator rotation.

I loved the first batch! SO much so, I am working on a second batch to check for consistency.

Thinking of what this beer would resemble, I didn't have high expectations for the result (purchased it purely for the $20 kit and thought it may be an appropriate lawn mower beer). Honestly, this turned out quite well. I used US05 yeast and fermented at 65F. If you have been in the St Louis area, this beer has more of a kraftig character than any of the B/M/C beers. This has been my go to beer so far this summer and I haven't been mowing my lawn often.

Good simple beer. Great for my non-adventurous friends.
