A Tribute to London Pride | 40 Pint Beer Kit
Tribute to London Pride Homebrew Beer Kit is inspired by one of Britain’s best known and most popular traditional ales. This classic English ale pours a rich tawny copper colour and combines smooth malt sweetness with fruity notes and a balanced, refreshing bitterness.
Expect inviting aromas of biscuit, caramel and dried fruit, with subtle notes of raisin and gentle malt sweetness. The carefully selected Crystal malt adds depth and colour, while traditional English hops contribute delicate herbal and lightly earthy notes. The result is a rich yet exceptionally drinkable ale with a smooth body, balanced bitterness and a clean, satisfying finish.
Tribute to London Pride Homebrew Beer Kit produces 40 pints of approximately 4.6% ABV traditional English bitter. Made with brewery quality liquid malt extract, speciality grains, premium hop pellets and carefully selected brewing yeast, this premium extract beer kit gives you an easy and rewarding way to brew a classic London Pride style ale at home.
If you’re looking for a London Pride homebrew beer kit, a traditional English ale kit, or a premium 40 pint extract beer kit, this recipe offers the perfect balance of rich malt flavour, subtle fruit character and traditional English hop bitterness.
The Commercial Brewery
Fuller’s has a long association with brewing in London, with beer brewed at the historic Griffin Brewery site in Chiswick for centuries. The modern brewing company was established in 1845, when John Bird Fuller joined forces with Henry Smith and John Turner, creating the business that became known as Fuller, Smith & Turner.
The brewery became famous for producing a range of distinctive British ales, including London Pride, ESB, Chiswick Bitter and 1845. London Pride went on to become its most recognisable beer and a popular example of the traditional English ale style.
Fuller’s brewing heritage remains closely connected with London and the historic Griffin Brewery. The brewery’s reputation has been built around producing characterful, balanced beers using traditional brewing methods and carefully selected ingredients.
Please note: This is a Dark Rock Tribute homebrew beer kit inspired by the style and flavour profile of Fuller’s London Pride. It is not manufactured by, affiliated with or endorsed by Fuller’s.
Tribute Series
The Dark Rock Tribute Series allows home brewers to create beers inspired by some of Britain’s best known commercial favourites. From classic British bitters and golden pale ales to rich dark ales and bold IPAs, each recipe is carefully developed to capture the distinctive character and flavour profile of the beer that inspired it.
We carefully select and match brewery-quality liquid malt extract, speciality grains, premium hops, sugars and brewing yeast to create the closest possible interpretation using an accessible extract brewing process. Every commercial brewery has its own water profile, brewing equipment, fermentation techniques and house yeast, so Dark Rock Tribute beers are not intended to be exact clones.
Instead, every recipe is designed to produce an excellent beer inspired by the original. For an enjoyable home brewing challenge, try the commercial beer alongside your own Tribute brew and see how close you can get.
Our experienced brewers carefully research and develop every Dark Rock recipe, selecting ingredients that create beers with genuine depth of flavour, aroma and character.
Brew it. Compare it. Enjoy it.
Why Choose Dark Rock Homebrew Beer Kits?
Dark Rock Beer Kits make it easy to brew exceptional, full flavoured beer at home. They are ideal for both beginners and experienced home brewers who want premium results without the time, equipment and complexity required for all grain brewing.
Unlike basic beer kits that use pre-hopped extract and require little more than mixing with water, our premium extract beer kits give you greater involvement in the brewing process. Each recipe uses carefully selected brewery quality liquid malt extract, speciality grains, premium hop pellets and premium brewing yeast, allowing you to build layers of authentic malt and hop flavour.
The result is an easy-to-use homebrew kit that bridges the gap between traditional extract brewing and more advanced brewing methods. You get more control over flavour and aroma while still using standard homebrew equipment. Our ingredients are carefully blended to suit each individual beer style, helping you create everything from crisp pale ales and classic bitters to rich stouts and bold IPAs.
Whether you are brewing your first 40 pint batch or have years of home brewing experience, Dark Rock Beer Kits provide a straightforward way to produce beer with genuine depth, aroma and character.

Brewers Tips
This kit includes Pure Brew, a professional brewing enhancer designed to support healthy fermentation and improve brewing water. It provides essential yeast nutrients while helping neutralise chlorine and chloramine, which can contribute unwanted flavours to finished beer. For the best possible results, add the included Pure Brew as directed in the brewing instructions.
You will also receive Harris Starbrite Beer Finings, a vegan friendly beer clarifier that helps encourage yeast and other particles to settle, producing a brighter, clearer finished beer. This is particularly useful when kegging and can help reduce sediment transfer.
Your London Pride style beer kit also includes a disposable hop T-bag to make adding and removing the hop pellets simple and convenient. For home brewers who want to upgrade their setup, a reusable stainless steel dry hopper can provide greater hop circulation and can be cleaned and reused for future brews.
Tip: Allow the beer to condition for at least two weeks after fermentation. This gives the rich malt flavours, subtle fruit character and traditional hop notes time to settle into balance, producing a smoother and more rounded finished ale.

I started this brew just before Christmas and I am very pleased with the results. It was ready to drink from the barrel on Christmas Eve and I m still enjoying it now in early January. Yes it does taste rather like London Pride and is very smooth.
The preparation was more than your usual cheap brew, but worth the effort and the handy grain bag can be reused for straining fruit while wine making.
You will need a 15 litre saucepan and the primary fermentation was VERY vigorous, escaping from my 5 gallon bucket. Next time I’m using an over sized wine fermenter with airlock.
This is a superb kit! Easy to make, the hardest part was waiting for it to finish so I could try some! This really does taste fantastic and incredibly similar to London Pride. It has a great mouthfeel compared to tinned kits, just like you get in your local!
My first part grain kit I’ve done and the results are superb, great taste, quite malty and fruity and super clear. According to my dad just like the real thing! Really looking forward to trying the other kits in the part grain range, well done Dark Rock!
Actually purchased this by mistake as I wanted the all grain version!
Anyhow, I brewed it, like you do.
Generally followed the instructions, but as I have a full grain brewing setup, I adapted it to suit.
Was surprised that the SG was 1.052 (temp corrected), but no complaints with that.
OK, the taste test. Well as a huge fan of Fullers London Pride, was a bit disappointed with the outcome as for me, its not a good likeness.
However, this is a stunningly good ale, really nice hoppy/honey nose with a really nice dry finish, more akin to Marstons Pedigree.
Comparing this side by side with genuine Courage Directors draught (which I happen to have a barrel of!), the Dark Rock brew is superior in every way!
I must in future have a go at the all grain version…
… may even try one or two of the others in the tribute range ????????????
Cheers!
Fantastic Beer, and easy to follow kit!
