Anyone tried this kit?

Looking to do an IPA and wouldn't mind trying either this or the Craft Range IPA. Or any other recommendations anyone might have??

Craft range IPA is smashing. Haven't tried the bruphoria one. Brewed the Coopers IPA a few times and always dry hopped the shi*te out of it. Always comes out nice.

I'll second the Craft Range IPA kit . . . I did a review on it here too if you want to have a look.

Get both so!!!  ;D

A rock of common sense!

I might try the Dead Phony anyway out of curiosity. Strange I can't find any mention of it here, or any of the Bruphoria kits - are these HBC's own concoctions?

If that doesn't slate my IPA thirst I'll get the Craft Range one next

Craft range ipa seems to be the top shout. I made the craft range wheat and wasn't overly impressed. I did under carbonate it .Thinking of trying either of these.  Bruphoria doesn't seem to have much mention on here . So may try craft ipa.

Went to put in the order last night and wouldn't ya know it but the Dead Phony was sold out.

Went for the 30 IBU Orgasm instead,  looks interesting. Cos I don't know my Saaz from my Simcoe I just went for Falconer's Flight the whole way... We'll see how she goes!

Love dead pony so very interested in hearing how this clone turns out. If it's anything like the real deal then I'll be placing an order.

Me too but it was sold out! That's why I ended up with the Orgasm IPA, but I might give the Dead Phony a whirl yet

Hi Kev, my experience with the Bruphoria Orgasm here http://www.nationalhomebrewclub.com/forum/index.php/topic,8321.msg104026.html#msg104026

Thanks Beej, haven't gotten round to sticking mine on yet. I wonder how fragrant the hops will be when I get round to opening the pack. I suppose if it does the job in the beer it doesn't matter so much, but you would think you'd get a good bang off them before you stick them in. It's a very interesting kit though - if it turns out nice I'd like to eventually try it with all the various malt extracts to see the difference. Then the IBUs... then the hops... see ye in 40 years lads!
