Used the Fully Topped IPA kit. Contents were brilliant. Instructions were clear but also used the video on the website.
After brewing and fermenting finally tried the IPA last Friday and the taste was amazing.
Looking to buy another!
We have now used the starter kit, the ingredients and the bottling kit and found that the quality is excellent and the instructions are clear and very easy to follow. Highly recommend
The instructions were very clear, the kit was well thought out, especially the bottle filler and thermometer, and the result was clear and tasted like a shop bought bottled beer.
9 pints was also a better volume for me than trying to bottle and drink 48 pints.
It’s been almost 35 years since I last tried to make some home brew. It was difficult to get anything tasty back then. The 9 pint starter kit is a game changer. Easy to follow instructions and a utube channel. How times have changed. I’m off to order another one shortly.
Great product! I’ve never brewed before and always fancied it. I didn’t like the idea of using a syrup as it felt like cheating. I think this is the best way to start and feel like you’re doing it from scratch. I ordered a starter IPA kit and an extra set of grains etc. the instructions are super easy especially when coupled with their you tube video. Would definitely recommend.
Yet again, a fabulous batch of 'Gone Surfing' just consumed.
Will be sending to try the Full English Ale soon - will report.
The kits are well presented and information easy to follow. The starter kit pack has lasted well and has been used multiple times. (the thermometer dial can get misted up a little - not a real issue though)
Easy to follow instructions. iPA tastes nice. Just the right size for regular domestic kitchen.
Great product good to find one that's grain brewing I did the full English ale surprisingly well for my first attempt recipe is clear to follow
Got a starter kit plus bottling kit from Bottle Topped. They are all well packed and the instructions are super clear. All required equipment are also mentioned before placing the order. Steph was responsive when I requested something from her team. Such a great option for a brewing starter. Will definitely order again. They deserve a better score on Trust Pilot.
Received this as a present.
Not sure how it can be classed as a starter kit when you have to purchase a 8l pot and a 10l container.
Thought I could free style it initially but found it was not possible.
Also the smell is terrible
Cheaper to purchase a few good independent quality beers

Great quality small batch beer kits. Highly recommended :-)
Super nice beers and very easy, straight forward service. Highly recommended
The kit arrived in good time and was very well presented. Will use as gifts in the future. Instructions easy to follow and I was really pleased with the result. Our friends couldn’t tell that it was home brew.
Quick delivery, good value and so happy to have ceramic lids on my bottles!
Order arrived quickly and all products are of good quality. Instructions are easy to follow and produce great beer. Will be ordering more in future.
Really great products and concept. Recommend for beginner who focus on process of homebrew.
