Description
This kit brews 19 litre of one of our favourite IPA’s, Two Hearted has regularly been voted as the best beer in the world by Rate Beer, and this moreish IPA fully deserves the award.
With this Premium Recipe kit you get the wet yeast from the Yeast Bay that is ‘rumoured’ to be the exact same strain that Bells brewery uses, and Centennial BBC Pure Hop pellets to give you an even better chance of cloning the beer exactly.

Rated having never tasted the original, I can only go off my finished beer. It’s exquisite and the yeast is a proper beast. It fermented aggressively, cleanly and boy was it active for a long while. I harvested enough for 10+ more brews with it.
