The 2-1/2-gallon brew keg features a pour tap and wide-mouthed lid for easy cleaning by hand. Included with this microbrewery kit are a can of West Coast Pale Ale mix, which produces a mild, full-bodied beer, a single-use packet of booster, which contains all-natural carbohydrates that enhance flavor and boost alcohol content, and brewer’s yeast. The beer-making ingredients are simply mixed with water, left to brew in the keg at room temperature for a week, and then put into the kit’s eight one-liter PET bottles for another week, during which time natural carbonation takes place. No CO2 cartridges are needed to enhance sparkle or beer head. Plastic bottle caps and labels are also included, as well as an instruction booklet full of brewing tips and recipes. Other Mr. Beer mixes and booster packs can be ordered separately. The keg is made of FDA-compliant PVC, which does not impart taste or color and is virtually indestructible. --Ann Bieri
Easy Homebrew Kit!Reviewed by Nicole Harris, 2010-01-08
I got Mr. Beer for my husband and he loves it! Just follow some simple directions, wait a couple weeks, and you end up with beer you made yourself. There are many different varieties to try and you can find recipes to make many more.
Great for the money and easyReviewed by Pam, 2009-12-04
I bought this for my husband last year for Christmas and he finally got around to brewing it a few months ago. Great stuff! We had the lager, I think, and it was pretty good. He asked for refill brew stuff and I ordered extra bottles to keep the supply stocked! We live in PA where the beer laws are ridiculous and they only sell cases at enormous prices so it's nice to have this alternative.
Great product fast serviceReviewed by R. Fisher, 2009-10-04
Great product, easy to use and produces great results. I have brewd 3 batches of beer with this kit, and all have been great tasting and easy to make. This kit is a great way to start Home brewing. Mr Beer offers lots of online Recipies and brewing supplies to go beyond basic brews. I like the 2 gallon brew keg, because it is easy to keep it on the counter in the kitchen without taking up a ton of space. Highly Recomended 5 stars
Mr. Beer is a fun, easy way to get into brewing your own beer!Reviewed by L. Truong, 2009-07-24
In addition to the Mr. Beer Premium Gold Edition Home Brew Kit, I
also purchased the Mr. Beer Premium Edition Home Microbrewery
System. The only difference between the Gold Edition is that the
former has two Brew Packs instead of one. This edition is the
mid-level offering. In my opinion, it's the most value packed one
because in addition to your first Brew Pack, it also comes with 8
1-liter plastic bottles and caps.
As a beginning home brewer, I didn't want to spend hundreds of
dollars on an elaborate home brew kit nor have to read tons of
books on how to do it. My goal was to try it, and if I liked the
finished product, play with it some more.
Well, after my first two batches of Mr. Beer brew, a lager and a
pale ale, I can attest to the simplicity and convenience of this
product. The beer making process was somewhat simple. I followed
the directions that came with the kit about sanitizing, brewing,
bottling, and conditioning almost to the letter. Almost anyone with
a high school reading level can make their own beer using a Mr.
Beer kit without terribly screwing anything up. The beer that is
fermenting in the Mr. Beer keg doesn't make your entire house reek
of a micro-brewery. As a matter of fact, the only time you do smell
beer is when you're preparing the wort and when bottling. Although
I'm not really a fan of the light beers, I was quite happy with my
first couple batches of home brew and have subsequently ordered
more Mr. Beer refills from Amazon.
If you want fast, effort-less beer, visit BevMo! My own bit of
advice to getting optimal flavor in your brew is to be patient. Let
the beer brew (ferment) in the keg for two weeks to give it favor
and alcohol content. Then after bottling, let it sit for two more
weeks to fully carbonate. Finally, let it chill in the refrigerator
for 2 weeks before enjoying your home brew. It's the 2-2-2 rule!
Bottoms up!
Rather than using glass bottles, which probably look better and
feel more like beer in your hands, I prefer to use the plastic
bottles. I think plastics are easier to clean, not prone to
bursting or breaking like glass, and you can easily tell if your
beer is fully carbonated by squeezing the bottle. Since this brew
kit only came with 8 1-Liter bottles and I had multiple fermenters,
I needed to get more bottles! Rather than paying $14.99 for the Mr.
Beer empty bottles on Amazon, I decided to buy the 16 oz. plastic
7-Up bottles instead. One Mr. Beer fermenter will yield 16 of the
16 oz. bottles of beer. As long as you use plastic bottles made to
hold carbonated beverages, you can use it to bottle your Mr. Beer
home brew. If you want to use the smaller 12 oz. soda bottles, you
will require 21 12 oz. bottles for your 2 gallon batch of Mr.
Beer.
My only complaint is that Amazon doesn't sell the other ingredients
nor accessories sold only on the Mr. Beer website, such as the
Unhopped Malt Extract which allows you to add additional flavor,
body, alcohol and malt characteristics to your beer. However, you
have to pay quite a bit for shipping, and you only get free
shipping if your order totals $99. However, with their Brew Club,
members get $5 shipping on all club orders over $29.99. Happy green
brewing!

I should probably wait until I use this product to review, so I may
come back and edit my review after the fact. I just wanted to say
that I've gotten a LOT of great tips from the commenters on this
site. I will use unhopped liquid malt instead of the booster and
liquid yeast instead of the dry. I will buy the swing top glass
bottles for sure. My first batch is going to be an Octoberfest
Cream Ale and I may add some brown sugar or chocolate to it. The
possibilities are endless!
The product arrived VERY quickly. I just ordered it 4 days ago--no
joke! And everything was perfect. It was not dusty or broken or
missing any parts. The book that came with the product was really
nice too. I am new to making beer so I liked how the book broke
down what each ingredient did and how it explained the history of
beer making. The book also contains really great recipes!! The Mr
Beer website is really helpful too. These guys truly love the beer
making process and it shows!
My husband is very excited that I am embarking on this new hobby.
Imagine making beer for your friends instead of buying them
presents! At this great price and in this economy, it seems crazy
to NOT buy one of these kits.
Keep up the great tips on here, commenters! They are greatly
appreciated.
