Festa Brew Dry

[jtmwhyte]

The description seems to fit a brew that would be great for inbev fans, and since I need to make something palatable for a bachelor party I was thinking of picking up a couple of kits. Any experience out there with this kit?

It's a basic light lager like coors or bud light good crowd beer for the hot season.

Not sure what your fermenting temperatures are like, but I'd think low temps would be quite important for a beer like this since it has so little flavor.

I have full lager capabilities

I have one of those lagering right now and haven't tasted it since it went in the keg a few months ago.

Tried this, was made well but just didn't have taste. I don't normally drink main stream beer for this reason as I find the flavour bland and lacking. I can say the same for the dry.

Stout, Bock, wheat, brown, and the red I've liked from festabrew.

I just tried my kegged "Festa Brew Dry"
I have to agree, it is perfect for the Coor Light, Moose Light, Bud Light drinkers

I must say I like it, even tho it does lack any flavour, it'll be perfect hot weather deck drinking beer

I like main stream beers and drink them a bit, but that don't mean to say I don't enjoy a IPA or a Bock also. To me, those light beers don't have to mean hot weather beer, after all, when the hell do we get hot weather here in Nfld?

The father-in-law doesn't drink beer but has been hinting around that it'd be nice to have some homebrew at the cottage. Reading between the lines tells me he intends to give it away to people who visit him at his cottage. I wasn't looking forward to putting the effort into an AG brew for someone else to give away to other people, so this solves my problems nicely.

Will two weeks fermentation circa 70*C be enough for this kit?

What yeast are they giving you?

Apparently S-23 - I think all their lagers use that.

Reviving this thread. I never got around to it 3 years back, but I picked one up today. I'll run it for a couple of weeks on cool US-05 and report back.
