Make It Your Brew
A citrus/floral dry hop can turn this into a standout taproom-style pale. Treat the tin as your foundation: choose the fermentable, control fermentation temperature, then condition properly. That is where a simple extract kit starts becoming your own house beer.
Brew more for less: turn one extract tin into a full home brew batch and you can craft your own beer for as little as 30c per stubby depending on recipe, fermentables, bottle size and packaging used.
