Great beer; easy to do; very rewarding
If you are looking for a way to make your own beer, but don't want to spend hours and hours doing it, and don't want to mess it up several times before getting it right, then Mr. Beer is for you. I fail to understand why my buddies are so keen on the old fashioned home brew kits (that include a 5 gallon "carboy", lots of hoses, lots of patience and lots of technical abilities), when this one makes really excellent beer for about 10% of the effort. And who really wants to make 44 botles of beer at once?? One kit make 12 20-oz bottles (or 20 12-oz bottles).I have made dozens of batches of beer from the hundred or so recipes offered by Mr. Beer, and all of them are excellent. There is the occasional batch that I am just a little too careless with my sanitization steps, and these have a bad "off flavor," but this has happened only twice, and the off flavor seems to diminish with time. It is hard for me to drink other beers now (even excellent ones like Guiness and Sam...

I LOVE IT!
I have never had a bad batch of Mr.Beer. The three pack of mix is a great value, its like getting one free. The only tip I have that I havent seen posted is when bottling, fill every bottle a little bit at a time. Fill each bottle a third until full. This process ensures that each bottle has about the same amount of settiment in the bottom. This in turn ensures a more consistent carbonation across the batch. More settiment=more yeast=more carbonation. You dont want half of your bottles to be rock hard and half to be soft after a few days.

Home brewing with the Mr. Beer keg becomes an experiment in flavor with this variety pack. Three cans of beer mix--Vienna Lager, Canadian Draft, and Weizenbier--let the brewer sample different blends of premium beers. Each can produces twenty 12-ounce bottles of beer. Also included are three single-use booster packs that contain all-natural maltodextrins. True to its name, booster not only enhances beer flavor, body, and balance, but "boosts" the alcohol content of the beer. After seven days brewing in the keg, and seven days of natural carbonation in the bottle, the beer is ready to be chilled and enjoyed. --Ann Bieri Top to learn more
Good stuff
I bought the variety pack and brewed my first batch of Nut Brown ale. It was fairly easy to make except it didnt come with mixing instructions so I had to find them on the internet (I have a different beer maker than a Mr. Beer). Would have been nice to include those.This mix is far better than the other beer mixes that I have tried. It tends to mix easier than the powdered stuff. Overall the beer was tasty, but it needed time to clear up. The first few drinks of it early on were ok but as the beer sat and cleared up it got a lot better, so give it time (2 weeks atleast). Happy Brewing!
