Black Rock Crafted BIB IPA - 4.6KG Craft Brewer's Wort makes 23L Beer Kit
This beer presents a golden to amber hue with a slight haze, thanks to the wheat malt. The aroma is a delightful blend of bready and biscuity notes from the ale malt, complemented by hints of caramel and toffee. On the palate, it offers a balanced profile with a solid malt backbone, creamy texture, and a harmonious mix of sweet caramel and toffee flavors. The moderate bitterness, indicated by an IBU of 38, provides a clean finish that perfectly balances the malt sweetness. Medium-bodied with a smooth, creamy mouthfeel and excellent head retention, this beer is both flavorful and refreshing, making it a well-rounded and enjoyable brew.
We highly recommend using dry hopping practices during fermentation on these kits to get real crafty hop aroma and flavour. Dry hopping is adding fresh palleted hops* into your fermenter as the fermentation activity starts to slow (approximately after 5-7 days).
