These wort kits are made on a Speidel 500L Braumeister Brewery, they are all grain and brewed true to style. They are especially suited to time poor brewers or those who simply want an excellent beer with a minimum of effort.NOTE: These kits are generally designed to add 3 litres of water to the fermentation to achieve the ideal balance, you may if you wish, not add the extra water for a richer, higher gravity version.

Yeast not included.

 

DESCRIPTION

Matt’s Imperial Stout—a beastly, soul-devouring concoction of dark, luscious decadence, clawing its way to nearly 10% ABV, this winter warmer is brewed for the Stout-Hearted Malt Maniacs. Concocted from a shadowy legion of dark malts and balanced by Warrior and East Kent Goldings hops, Matt recommends fermenting this one undiluted for a seriously strong sipping beer, but you can dilute with a few litres of boiled and cooled water if you want something a tad lighter.

This beer will age like a fine wine, add some oak chips or staves to the secondary fermenter/keg and let is sit for a few months to add complexity and some oak character if desired. The perfect accompaniment to rich stews, brisket, some sharp vintage cheddar or with a slice of chocolate cake for dessert. With Keg King’s pro-brewed wort, you skip the grunt work so you can enjoy brewery quality beer the easy way. Grab one now and embrace your dark side....

Craft Brewing Keg King Fresh Wort Kits: Small Batch – Huge Results!

Our entire range of Keg King Fresh Wort Kits is craft brewed in small batches in our own brewery. Each kit is designed around a recognised beer style and made with style-specific ingredients for authentic flavour in every beer.

We take brewing very seriously. No corners are cut and nothing is compromised. We only use the highest quality, freshest malt and hops to bring each kit to life. But we don’t stop there.

To really drive home the authenticity of each kit, we go the extra mile, incorporating traditional brewing techniques and clever hands-on processes that yield high-quality results you’ll savour in every sip.

Decoction Mashing

Our European golden lagers, like the Czech Pilsner and Munich Helles, incorporate actual decoction mashes to capture the clarity, colour and subtle flavour enhancements that the extra work on brew day brings to the kits.

Iteration Mashing

The Matt’s Imperial Stout kit is the result of a 24-hour triple-iteration mashing process. This stacks up the high starting gravity points and delivers a stout so potent you can barrel-age it for years and keep coming back to see how it evolves over time.

Cold Steep Infusion

Our Dark Rice Lager, Irish Draught Stout and Oatmeal Stout kits use an overnight cold-steeped specialty malt infusion to deliver dark colour and deep, rich flavours without harsh astringency. You’ll notice the smoothness in every glass.

Hop Stands

XPA, West Coast IPA, NEIPA and Red IPA are all kept hop-forward in flavour but still balanced, without harsh or bitter astringency. The extra time and carefully calculated hop additions are all part of our brewer’s attention to detail, so the final results have impact that will keep you coming back for more. The hop stand is a brilliant way to preserve hop oils and keep the aroma exactly where we want it… in the beer!

The Craft All Adds Up

Our love of craft brewing is what drives us to keep offering new beer styles and widen our range. We put our heart into each kit we brew, ensuring the quality and the ingredients all add up to something bigger than the sum of its parts.

Take the Work Out of Your Wort

What are you skipping when you grab a Keg King Fresh Wort Kit?

The hassle of all-grain brewing can be tedious, messy, heavy and hard to get perfect. There’s lots of preparation, lots of time wasted if you get it wrong, and unless you love it, brew day can end up a massive, sticky mess. So take the work out of your wort and start fresh, get fermenting fast and get your time back. Less equipment, less hassle, and fantastic all-grain beer in every Keg King Fresh Wort Kit.
