Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Mr. Beer 3-Beer Mix Variety Pack
Customer Review: 2 Hits and a Miss
Summary: 4 Stars
I enjoyed brewing all three of these beers. The "recipes" are all the exact same, you follow the same steps to make each batch. Very easy to make.
My favorite was the Vienna Lager. It has a rich golden brown color and a nice full flavor. It was the best out of all the beer that I've made so far.
The next best was the Weizenbier. It was crisp, tasty and fresh. Not too heavy. It reminded me of Coors Light.
I didn't like the Canadian Draft at all. I was expecting something along the lines of Molson or some other Canadian beer and this was just not good. It was tasteless and boring. I'd liken it to Near Beer, it had hardly any kick at all in addition to being flavorless.
Customer Review: Good product, great price.
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a fantastic price for the amount of beer mix that comes with the kit. These kits are usually $13 each. I don't necessarilly like to use the booster, so look up some of the recipes on the Mr. Beer website and I order an unhopped malt extract (UME) and anything else that could be needed to create some really cool beers. You can also go to your local homebrew supply store and by some dry extracts.
Note for those that are unfamiliar with MR. Beer. For the most part the beer are very simple and won't knock your socks off, but as you learn more and more you have the capability to really expand your repertoire.
Customer Review: Worth the price

I had a different brand beer maker but the fermentation tank was so inferior it leaked after only a few batches and the beer soured during the process. So far, I've made three batches with the Mr. Beer and all have been perfect. I've already received my second three pack and am about to start the fourth batch. This kit is easy to use and makes great beer if you just follow the directions precisely. I definitely recommend Mr. Beer for anyone who wants to brew their own and at a price that is less than what you pay for commercial beer. Prices at Amazon are below the price you pay if you go direct to the manufacturer.Customer Review: Nice system but...
Summary: 3 Stars
I've just made to completion my first batch of home brew. I'm impressed with the ease of use and the quality of the products, to include the finished product. It's great beer and a great way to make it.
I'm less impressed with the shipping process. It took Amazon many weeks to get my initial Mr. Beer system to me, due to supply I believe. I subsequently ordered additional Mr. Beer products directly from their website and was not impressed with their high shipping charges and very slow shipping/handling times. This would be a five star product if they could work out their shipping delays and costs.
Customer Review: Good stuff

I bought the variety pack and brewed my first batch of Nut Brown ale. It was fairly easy to make except it didnt come with mixing instructions so I had to find them on the internet (I have a different beer maker than a Mr. Beer). Would have been nice to include those. This mix is far better than the other beer mixes that I have tried. It tends to mix easier than the powdered stuff. Overall the beer was tasty, but it needed time to clear up. The first few drinks of it early on were ok but as the beer sat and cleared up it got a lot better, so give it time (2 weeks atleast). Happy Brewing!
