Your Label Peelers New England Calling NEIPA Original Beer 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.

Your New England Calling NEIPA combines a unique selection of malts, hops and yeast to create a delicious New England-style IPA. This beer kit features 6 lbs of light dry malt extract, 1 lb of Vienna malt, 1 lb of Carapils malt, and 1 lb of flaked wheat malt. This combination of malts gives the beer a light, yet full-bodied malt character. We then add 1 oz of Citra hops, 1 oz of Mosaic hops, and 1 oz of Simcoe hops, which provide a juicy, tropical hop character with notes of citrus, stone fruit, and pine. Finally, we use a packet of Lallemand New England Ale yeast to give the beer a clean, crisp finish. The result is an incredibly smooth and balanced NEIPA that is sure to please any hop head. Enjoy!!
