Review: Goodbye Retail store beer!!!! - With the majority of online reviews being positive, decided to give MR. BEER a try. With the first keg arriving Dec., 2010, here's a review with results from using both the Premium & Premium Gold Kits to brew the 3-Beer Mix Variety Pack American Series, the 3-Beer Mix Variety Pack and a West Coast Pale Ale. Procedures used were: - strict adherance to the sanitizing process - exclusive use of Spring Water (not tap) - fermenting temp. observed above 65 deg. F - minimum bottling temp. 70 deg. F - careful to use all the ingredients (spatula to get every drop from the canned contents) - use of exactly measured plain white sugar for bottling - fermenting and bottling gestation done in complete darkness - used the recommended 2 week interval between all 3 stages. This is the first time to brew and unlike other reviewers, am no expert but enjoy drinking beer when watching my NFL football games. The results: 3-Beer Mix Variety Pack American Series - Classic American Blonde Ale - Being the first brew, the anticipation had me opening the 1st two bottles after 1 1/2 weeks of cold lagering. Clear golden color, good carbonation, good head retention, a tad sweet but extremely tasty. My favorite beer. - Cowboy Golden Lager - Clear golden color, good carbonation, good head retention, pleasing bitterness w/ nice hoppy aroma. My second favorite beer. - Bewitched Red Ale - Perfect deep color, good carbonation, excellent head retention, this is the best tasting of this American Series Pack. Enticing aroma and a smooth, tasty beer. 3-Beer Mix Variety Pack International Series - Oktoberfest Vienna Lager - Dark Ale color, good carbonation, good head retention, almost no bitterness w/ full hoppy aroma (my wife's favorite). Easy drinking beer and my favorite of this series. - High Country Canadian Draft - Clear golden color, good carbonation, good head retention, pleasing bitterness. Another tasty beer and my second favorite in this series. - Whispering Wheat Weizenbier - Deep golden color, good carbonation, good head retention, caramel finish. Flavorful but the slight sweetness makes it not one of my favorites. West Coast Pale Ale - Clear golden color, good carbonation, good head retention. Tastes in between the Classic American Blonde Ale and Cowboy Golden Lager. Weakest flavor among all the brews made but still tastier than light beer. Preferring American style light (Coors, Bud, Miller) beer, the quality from all the Mr. Beer brews I've made are all tastier. Despite the low published alcohol content, the actual "hit" is very smooth. Don't know were some of the reviewers got their "watery" taste and no "head" opinions. More likely, these sub-standard results were due to their using less than ideal sanitazion conditions, using tap chlorinated water, and/or rushing the brewing process. Got a lot of good tips from various online reviews, which minimized/eliminated mistakes. When one batch of beer is ready for bottling, reserve yourself 3 hours to bottle starting from a fully fermented keg, then re-clean, re-sanitize and have another brew batch inside the keg to start re-fermenting. My greatest advise would be to take your time in all aspects. It will result in a home made beer you can be proud off. Am using 3 fermenting kegs to get brewing into full production. Saving money is one thing, but drinking terrific tasting beer is the all-important consideration. My days of buying retail beer are history thanks to Mr. Beer and desertcart's great service.
Review: Great for what it is - I give this item five stars, not because it is the best homebrewing kit out there, but because it is probably the most economical choice for a person looking for an introduction to homebrewing. I finished making my first batch of beer, and have the second batch fermenting now. My first batch was the American Blonde Ale that came with the kit. Being a pretty avid beer drinker, I will say it here that the beers that come with this kit are not going to knock your socks off. But I WILL say that it is still decent beer, and just knowing that you made the beer makes it all that much better. You can indeed buy better beer mixes from the Mr. Beer website, although it can be a little costly. Much of them are available here on desertcart as well, and if you take advantage of 4-for-3 (buy three and get one free), it's not too expensive. Anyway, I would still prefer to drink the basic beers that came with the kit than buy a pack of Coors/Bud in the store, because the experience of creating and eventually tasting your own homebrew is very enjoyable :) The good news about this kit is that, if you decide to "graduate" from making basic kits from Mr. Beer, you can still use the supplies (the fermenter, the PET bottles) while customizing your own ingredients, instead of buying Mr. Beer refills. The fermenter is great because it's just 2.5 gallons. It will make about twenty 12-oz. bottles of beer, and quite honestly, this is the best way to go for a lot of people. Most beer kits make 5 gallons of beer (or 45 12-oz. bottles), which is great if you are a hardcore beer drinker or really know what you are doing. But for beginners, making smaller batches is a great way to get your feet wet, and if things go bad (or you don't like a batch for some reason), you are wasting less beer. My recommendation: If you want to start understanding the basics of brewing beer without forking over a boatload of cash, get this kit. It can always be customized at a later date if you decide to get into more complex brewing. This is a small price to pay to begin learning the homebrew process, and to start enjoying your very own beer. Also, if you get this kit, take note that although Mr. Beer says its beers are ready to drink within two weeks, you need to give them at least four. They should ferment for two weeks, then transfer to bottles to carbonate/condition for two weeks. It's even recommended to then put them in the fridge for another two weeks before breaking them open.. if you have the self restraint to wait that long :) This is additional conditioning time that allows the flavors to mesh together. You will definitely taste the difference. This is called the 2-2-2 rule (two weeks per stage of brewing).

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is the difference of the premium gold edition from the brewmasters edition? Besides the hat, glasses, and the shirt that won't fit.**
A: The brewmasters kit comes with craft beer refills and the premium gold comes with standard beer refills.  Craft beers are more like your microbrew beers, and standard beers would be more like your Miller, and Coors beers.  The craft beers cost a little more.  If you go to the Mr. beer website they will have more details.  If you are just wanting to see if you are interested in the process of making your own beer I would go with the cheaper premium gold edition if you don't want the extra stuff, then if you like making your own beer you can order the craft refills.  Hope this helps.

**Q: Can you make the brew start to finish with everything included in this kit? or are there numerous items you must also buy to make the beer? if so what**
A: Aimee,You can make a brew from start to finish.  In fact, you make 2 with this kit.  However, I would gather $10 or so and get a hydrometer to measure specific gravity before and after fermentation to verify alcohol content and if fermentation is complete.  You don't have to because this kit includes "Hopped Extract" which means that you don't need to add any Hops to  your brew, they did it for you.  It is completely ready to go and the results should be the same every time you make a batch.  They take all the science out of the process by pre-hopping the extract. Last note:  My friends love the Aztec and Bohemian extracts that came with my kit.  I have now moved onto All-Grain brewing with the occasional non-hopped extract brew.Good book to read is "How to brew"  by Palmer.  Hope that helps!

**Q: What the percentage of alcohol in the beer? and how can we control it?**
A: The sugar content and the potential of the yeast determine the potential alcohol percentage. Beyond that, my husband is the brew-meister. I know he's made some that approached 15-16%.

**Q: Is the fermenter's lid supposed to come with a gasket? I just received mine and it did not have one and when I put the lid on to rinse it it leaked...**
A: It's not supposed to seal. The top of the keg has notches in it to allow it to breathe during the fermentation process. This is why it must be carbonated in the bottles 

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Simple Mr. Beer Process
*by D***S on March 13, 2012*

2 Buddies and I decided to try a couple brew kits. We went together and purchased a 5 gal. kit, and I ordered the Mr. Beer kit to try myself. The Mr. Beer kit was much easier to prepare, than a kit with separate ingredient packs, with malt, barleys, hops, etc. The Mr. Beer process is simple, and relatively rewarding. However, for proper beer making, allow about 4 weeks from start to finish, instead of the minimum 2 weeks. I'm on my second batch now. The first batch yielded a simple, yet satisfying Cowboy Lager. It is not complex, but refreshing, with great carbonization. My next is is Wicked Red. The initial Mr. Beer recipe is quite simple in comparison to the other brew we made in 5 gallons with a larger, more expensive kit. That beer turned out really rich, with a full flavor, and quite hoppy. Not my preferred taste, but my buddies liked it allot. For the price, and simplicity, Mr. Beer is awesome.
