You'll Never Catch Me Copper Ale Beer Kit

Get ready to embark on a thrilling brewing adventure with our You'll Never Catch Me Copper Ale beer kit. This isn't just a beer kit; it's your ticket to a world of rich, coppery goodness that will have your taste buds outrunning the flavor police in no time.

Our Copper Ale is a crafty escape artist, boasting a beautiful reddish hue that's as elusive as a sunset. This color is a result of the 6 lbs. of Light Dry Malt Extract and 2 lbs. of Bonlander Munich Malt, which together create a malt bill that's as hard to pin down as a fugitive on the run.

But don't let the color fool you. This beer is not just about looks. It's about flavor. The 4 oz. of Aromatic Munich Malt and 4 oz. of Victory Malt add a depth of flavor that's as layered as a well-planned getaway. And the 2 oz. of Chocolate Malt and 1 oz. of Black Malt? They're the accomplices, adding a hint of darkness to the mix that's as tantalizing as a secret hideout.

The chase doesn't end there. Traditional hops are hot on the trail, providing a floral and earthy backdrop that's as refreshing as a clean getaway. With 1 oz. of Northern Brewer Hops and 1 oz. of Fuggle Hops, your palate will be on a wild chase, tracking down every last hint of flavor.

This Copper Ale is a light, easy drinker. It's the perfect way to slow down after a long day of running, metaphorically speaking, of course. So why not stop your running and settle down with one of these bad boys? With the "You'll Never Catch Me Copper Ale" beer kit, you're not just brewing beer; you're crafting an escape plan that's as delicious as it is daring.

So, are you ready to take the plunge into the thrilling world of home brewing? Your Copper Ale adventure awaits.
