Just picked up something new from the Brewstore, which is just next door to the Aquarium store I was actually visiting.

Brewcraft Ultra - a two can, all malt brew that comes with hops and yeast. In this case, I got the Imperial Pale Ale, which came with Goldings and US-05.

Big deal you might say, but remember who makes the Brewcraft tins - double checking the instructions on the box, I'm 99% sure that these are rebadged (or produced by and in the same manner as) Muntons Gold and Premium Gold kits!

The 3 they have so far are Imperial Pale Ale, British Bulldog Ale, and Chocolate Redwood Ale, only $39.95, which makes them $1.50 cheapr than the Gold and $15 cheaper than the Premium gold, at my local anyway. Guy at the store just put the IPA on tap - said it turned out a little too Pale for style, but if you closed your eyes when drinking it was spot on

Oh, and I think I'm gonna try the Chocolate Redwood next time I visit.

My FIL put the British Bulldog Ale down on Thursday. Was aroud there earlier and the S-04 is going strong, smells pretty bloody good to. Came with the two cans of hopped extract and a sachet of Super Alpha hops.

I will let you all know when I get a chance to taste it. I think he paid about $40 for it as well.

Yep the Brewcraft are made by Muntons

Tasted this from the fermentor, very promising for a kit, but at the price it is gonna have to be pretty killer!
