How long does the finished ipa remain drinkable, after the initial bottling and or delivery to a pressure barrel ? thank you

Hi Ian, thanks for your question. The beer will be fine for a while and our BBE recommendations are as below: Bottles 9-12 months Barrel 3 months Hope this answers your question. Any other questions please do not hesitate to ask. Best wishes, Laura

Does the kit include finings, or is an unfined beer?

Hi Mike, thanks for your question. No, there are no finings included with this kit. However finings aren't necessary as the beer will clear naturally if following the instructions. Home Brew Online

Do the kits have a best before date?

If you mean the best before date on the ingredients then yes, bought a second batch as my first didn't last long, too moorish. But checked the dates on the second batch, only recently arrived, yeast is good until Feb 2018, Malt is good until July 2016, hope that helps. If you meant how long after brewing and bottling until its goes off, I'm not sure, as people say try and leave it six months to condition fully before drinking, I would guess at least a year probably more, but you will drink it long before.

Can you direct me to kits where I don't need anything else, this will be my first time doing a brew and I'm unsure on what to buy. Thanks

BryanI'm relatively new to home brew too (that's poetic) anyway you'll need a kit such as this, which are good as are any of the Woodford ones if you haven't tried them . A large barrel or bucket to mix everything in with a sealable lid this will allow it to ferment and will prevent oxygen from getting in whilst it is doing this and then depending on whether you will be bottling it or putting it into a barrel a batch of brown bottles or barrel with a tap at the bottom. I don't drink mine that quickly so I bottle them and have bought some crown caps and a capper. you can get them on Amazon for about £10-£15 but I got mine from Wilkinson's if you have one near to you or you can order on line from them now. they also sell the crown lids as well as everything else for home brew. You can buy the bottles from them aswell for about a fiver for 6 though I went to Lidl and bought some of their excellent bottled beers they have a great range of real ales for £1.25 each. I simply bought forty bottles of beer, over a period of about 6 months and, once they'd been emptied soaked them in soapy water so the labels came off. You will also need to buy some sterilising powder which you'll need to use to clean out your barrels and any equipment you use once you've finished. The kits are really simply and as long as you follow the instructions you can't go wrong. try You tube to see folk brewing there's bound to be people posting stuff up good luck
