I got the kit with a small booklet with instructions on how to brew using the kit, and another small paper pamphlet with different instructions on it. Anyways I attempted to brew 6 different beer recipes at and only 1 actually succeeded without turning sour(and the one that succeeded didn't even taste good). Even if you follow the instructions to the T and you sanitize your butt off it doesn't make much a difference with this sub par kit. The yeast is poor quality(what do you expect with dry yeast), the ingredients are poor quality, and the whole process is just garbage. Invest in a real brewing kit and not this awful waste of money. Trust me, even if you say "it's the thought that counts", well from one beer drinker to another I'll say the only thing that counts is the taste! enough said! Rating: 1 / 5 Don’t get it!

The ingredients were low quality, and the equipment akward to use. You're better off going to your local homebrew store, getting a 6-gal plastic bucket with an airlock, and a siphon. There are pleanty of good recipies, using dry or liquid malt extracts and dried hops, which are as easy to make as the Mr. Beer kits, and much, much tastier. I recommend the book "How to Brew: Ingredients, Methods, Recipes, and Equipment for Brewing Beer at Home" by John J. Palmer as a straightforward beginners guide, instead.

It was fun to make the beer, but the end product left a lot to be desired, why brew beer in this that you can barely tolerate when you can spend a bit more and get a brewing system that makes good beer.<p>Learn a lesson from me and go to you local home brew store and brew your own.
