Most of the reviews i've read on these are they are cheap and nasty, i've now done the export which i enjoyed, even though i'm not a bitter drinker, so cant realy compare to any bitters. Now just bottled a lager which first impressions is it's realy nice so looking forward to what it tastes like. I do brew them short to 32 pints and imagine would be a bit thin if made to 40 pints, I'm going to wait see what the lager is like when ready then get some and start tweaking them as only my 3rd brew. Anyone else enjoy the geordie brews?
