Brew an authentic Traditional Bitter at home with the Muntons Connoisseurs Traditional Bitter Beer Kit 1.8kg. Inspired by the classic English pub ale, this premium extract kit produces a well-hopped beer with a rich malty flavour, balanced bitterness and a smooth, satisfying finish.

The Muntons Connoisseurs range contains more malt extract than the Premium series, producing beers with greater body, flavour and overall quality. Suitable for both beginners and experienced homebrewers, this kit delivers consistently excellent results with minimal effort.

Designed to brew 23 litres of beer, you'll produce approximately 40 pints of classic English bitter with an alcohol content of around 4.3% ABV. For the best flavour, serve at cellar temperature (around 13°C).
