A Tribute to St Austell Tribute | Part Grain Beer Kit
Dark Rock’s Tribute to Tribute is an amber-coloured Cornish pale ale, with a rich aroma of biscuity malt and tart citrus fruit, from the Willamette hops. Juicy malt, hop resins and tangy fruit provide a finish that is long and lingering. There is a fine balance between malt and hops, which finally becomes dry and bitter. Dark Rock’s Tribute to Tribute makes 40 pints of 4.2% ABV Pale Ale.
The Commercial Brewery
St Austell Brewery was founded in 1851 by Cornishman Walter Hicks in St Austell, Cornwall. Today St Austell Brewery remains 100% independent and family-owned. Proper Job was born in 2006, out of the original micro-brewery mash tun that now forms an integral part of the new Small Batch Brewery, this classic IPA has quietly forged its own destiny, increasing its sales tenfold along the way to becoming the UK’s biggest-selling bottle-conditioned beer as well as a hugely popular cask ale.
Perhaps the forerunner of all modern IPA’s in the UK, Proper Job was originally brewed at 5.5% in line with 19th-century IPA guidelines, however, was reduced to below 4.5% in the cask to meet British session ale expectations. The bottled beer has been kept at its original strength for those who like a little more oomph in their IPA.
Tribute Series
The Dark Rock Tribute range allows you to produce beers which mirror the classic commercial favourites. We carefully selected and matched quality hops, malts, and yeast to provide you with the closest possible result. Each brewery will have unique factors such as water source and yeast type; therefore, Tribute beers are not intended to be clones. We recommend you have fun by comparing the commercial beer against your own to see how close you can get.
Commercial brewers with extensive knowledge and a passion for craft beers and real ales carefully research and develop each Dark Rock kit. Dark Rock Kits enable you to produce commercial quality beers, all within the comfort of your own home. We add malts and hops at controlled stages of the brewing process to create rich aromas and depths of flavour that are not only stunning but also simply unparalleled.
Why Choose Dark Rock Part Grain Beer Kits?
Dark Rock Part Grain Beer Kits strike the perfect balance between ease and authenticity, making them the ideal choice for anyone who wants to brew exceptional beer at home without jumping straight into All Grain Brewing. Whether you’re just starting out or already an experienced brewer, these kits help you produce commercial-quality, flavour-packed beer with confidence.
Unlike basic extract kits, these take your brewing to the next level by combining traditional extract methods with a simple steeping and boiling process. Using carefully selected malt grains and hops, you’ll unlock richer, more complex flavours and aromas—giving you far greater creative control over your brew. All you need is standard home brewing equipment, plus a 12-litre pan and a thermometer (see full equipment list below), making it an easy upgrade from standard extract kits.
Each kit comes with 3kg of premium malt extract, a freshly packed blend of grains, and top-quality hops sourced from the best producers worldwide. We weigh and pack every ingredient fresh to order, while hops are vacuum sealed in nitrogen-flushed bags to lock in their full character and freshness.
To make your brewing journey even smoother, we provide expert guidance and a wide variety of beer styles to explore—from hazy pale ales and rich stouts to crisp pilsners. With Dark Rock Part Grain Kits, you get everything you need to create truly exceptional beer at home.

Brewers Tips
This kit includes Pure Brew, a professional enhancer that boosts fermentation and treats brewing water. It feeds yeast with vital nutrients, while removing Chlorine and Chloramine, which can cause off-flavours. Since water quality is key to great beer, we strongly recommend using Pure Brew in every brew for consistently better results.
You’ll also get Harris Starbrite finings, a vegan-friendly clarifier that helps your beer clear quickly and encourages sediment to settle. This is especially useful if you’re kegging, as it reduces the risk of haze and sediment transfer.
To make brewing even easier, we’ve included a muslin grain bag and hop t-bag. For a more advanced setup, consider adding a metal hop spider. It offers better hop circulation during the boil, is easy to clean, and can be reused again and again.
