Hi guys,

I just spotted these new beer kits for sale at Wilko's and thought I'd share.

Who makes the Wilko kits?

 

[Satellitemark]

As far as I know they use Muntons.

Muntons...I think.

I spied the wheat the other day in my local wilko

Their old wheat was a great kit.

I have been in two local branches recently and seen neither but I'll go again as im partial to a wheat beer .

Muntons make most of the UK manufactured kits. If you want to know more about them, here is the link:

Was going to reply that they do click and collect. Just checked and they now seem to charge £2.

Not too much, but why?

 

[Binkei Huckaback]

I think it's outrageous, especially when a branch is constantly out of stock of something. and sent then a message via Twitter telling them so and that I'd never shop there again. They didn't even bother to reply.

'Artisan Brewing' ahahahahahaa.

£16 for a one can kit is too much.

 

[chris-s]

I used to check Wilko regularly as they occasionally used to drop the Woodfordes to £18.

Once got some Milestone cheap too.

Haven't seen an offer for a long time now.

I picked up a new wheat kit yesterday and got it on today.

David at Cheshire homebrew has put up this video of him doing it with additions of coriander , orange peel and dry hopped it.
