Review on 🍺 Enhanced Russian Imperial Stout Homebrew Beer Ingredient Kit by Molly Kaye

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Good ingredients Poor quality control

I purchased this kit and when I received it and opened the box it was all in LME, the bottom of one of the LME containers was split. I contacted Revain and they gave me a full refund so I ordered another one and got the same result but this time the leak wasn't that bad and I can use the kit. Brewers Best has a quality control issue. I have used some of their kits in the past and never had a problem but if you read reviews of some of these kits you will see many complaints about their packaging. I hope someone will make some changes and solve this problem. After the brewing was complete the hydrometer reading was correct, but after fermentation the reading didn't reach the level stated in the instructions so I let it sit for another four days (8 days total) and it didn't change. The ABV will be 7.61 which is less than advertised and I can tell you it's a very hoppy beer, I'll probably serve it as a deinked beer with Baileys.
