MYO (The Range) American IPA
- Makes 23L
- Starting SG: 1.044
- Finish SG: 1.011

- A fairly cheap kit but actually tastes very pleasant. Add an extra 50g of simcoe hops to make this great for summer.
Mangrove Jack's Juicy Session IPA Limited Edition

Mangrove Jack's Red IPA Limited Edition

- Vibrant sharp ale. Personally prefer the Young's kit.
Mangrove Jack's Pink Grapefruit IPA Limited Edition
- Makes 23L
- Starting SG: 1.045
- Finish SG: 1.008
- 22 hours to start bubbling
- This didn't turn out great. For some reason it tastes artificial, almost like plastic. I can only assume something went wrong but all the hydrometer measurements and timings were bang on.
Bulldog Evil Dog American Double IPA
- Makes 23L
- Sugar - No sugar required! Yes the mixture is pre-loaded. Only priming sugar is needed for bottling.
- Starting SG: 1.068
- Finish SG: 1.009
- 24 hours to start bubbling
- My god this is strong. It has a nice flavour but could have more. I personally think breaking the hops bags open would help improve this.
