Description
Your Nova Nectar Ale combines light dry malt extract with biscuit malt, honey malt, caramel 20L malt, and cara-pils/dextrine to give you a balanced malt character with light caramel notes. Magnum hops deliver bitterness while multiple Galaxy hop additions provide flavor and aroma, and the dry hop addition adds further hop character. Safale US-05 yeast ferments cleanly so the hop and malt notes remain prominent in your finished beer.
Your Nova Nectar Ale kit never sits on a shelf. Your grains are crushed to order. Your ingredients are packed fresh and you don't pay for a flashy box. It's all about providing you with the freshest ingredients for you to make your best beer.
