Fresh Wort Kits are an amazing way to produce commercial quality beer at home with basic equipment. No experience of home brewing is required, simply follow the instructional videos and share awesome beer with your friends and family.

For more advanced brewers this kit ships without yeast, the idea being the brewer can use any yeast they wish to personalise the final product.

Unlike traditional beer kits that are made from malt extract, our Fresh Wort Kits are dispensed directly from Gritchie’s brew house into bag in a box style packaging. This allows the fresh flavours the team at Gritchie magic into their wort are available for our customers to easily complete the brewing process at home. Simply pour the Fresh Wort Kit into a fermenter and add the yeast. Your beer will be ready to drink in approximately two weeks.

Our Fresh Wort Kits are exclusively made by Gritchie Brewing Company, located in Ashmore, Wiltshire. Their incredible range of cask, bottled and canned beers are created by their amazing head brewer Alix Blease and head of operations Kane Upton. The brewery is positioned in the middle of the Ashcombe Estate where the malting barley variety Maris Otter is grown. It is this very malted barley that is used to produce their beers, including our fresh wort kits. Keeping ingredients as local as possible, Gritchie Brewing Company also have their own bore hole allowing water for the brewing process is drawn. This gives their beers, and our fresh wort kits a terroir, hugely important to any beer drinker.

English Lore is a modern pale ale using Maris Otter, Crystal, wheat and oats to produce the wort. This gives a darker style pale ale with good, strong malt, bready flavours. The bittering is taken care of by modern U.S. hops Ekuanot and Amarillo which are also used for flavour and aroma in the whirlpool along with Saaz for some lingering spice. Ferment with any yeast desired to personally adjust the final product.
