Harbour Lights – Pale Ale – 5l All Grain Home Brew Kit

This 5 litre recipe kit features everything you need to home brew a homage to St Austell Tribute, taking inspiration from our visit to St Austell in 2023 where we were given the full recipe for Tribute. This recipe has been simplified to work perfectly as part of our Kitchen Brewer series or otherwise known as stove top brewing.

Expect a beer which is crisp, easy drinking but also layered with zesty, orange notes as well as a balanced malt back bone due too the use of Cornish Gold malt for Simpsons, which is used by St Austell in Tribute. This 5L recipe kit is inspired by our best selling St Austell Tribute – 23l All Grain Recipe Kit which has a been super popular since we launched it in 2023, after visiting and filming with the team at St Austell for our YouTube Channel.
