Muntons Taproom Series Dark Soul Black Lager – Extract Beer Kit

Description

DARK SOUL BLACK LAGER

Hailing from Europe, the dark or black lager is an intriguing blend of contrasts. Despite its dark hue, these beers are crafted with lager yeasts, making them deceptively drinkable. A style of beer delivering instant refreshment when served icy cold. Our version is a smooth lager with a malty body and a crisp, dry finish. The dark colour is deceiving and contradicts the light mouthfeel of this thirst-quenching beer. Brewed using a bottom fermenting yeast and infused with Hallertau hop pellets, this beer serves not only as a delightful beverage but also an intriguing conversation piece.

SPECIFICATIONS

ADDITIONAL INGREDIENTS REQUIRED:

This kit requires the addition of 1Kg Brewing Sugar, 1Kg Dark Spraymalt or 1Kg Dark Beer Kit Enhancer (Preferred) . Later, you will also need sugar or carbonation drops to prime the keg or bottles for the secondary fermentation. We also advise using finings like Starbrite to ensure your lager clears quickly and the sediment sticks to the bottom on the bottle or keg.

TIPS

To achieve a commercial quality, we strongly recommend using Pure Brew with this kit. Pure Brew is a professional beer enhancer. It feeds the yeast with essential nutrients, which supercharge the fermentation and support yeast development (even in limited oxygen conditions). Pure Brew also treats brewing water, eliminating problems caused by Chlorine and Chloramine, which can create a medicinal or, as it is sometimes referred to, a “homebrew” taste. However, the condition of brewing water is critical to achieving optimum results, and this important area is often overlooked. By using Pure Brew, you can effectively and easily condition brewing water, and maximise effective fermentation.

The addition of beer finings will improve the final quality of your beer. Finings such as Harris Beer Brite will help your beer to clear quickly and the sediment will be more likely to stay at the bottom of bottles or barrels. If you are using Corny Kegs then it is important to clear the beer as much as possible before kegging. Beer Finings will promote a faster and more efficient fall out of sediment and haze particles prior to kegging. Harris Starbrite is a highly effective vegan-friendly beer fining, which is rapidly becoming a firm favourite with home brewers.
