Fresh Wort Kit - Stout

Tailor your perfect stout — Imperial, Pastry, Baltic or Tropical.

The FWK Stout is a deep, roasty wort base built from chocolate malt, caramunich, oats and Carafa, bittered with Magnum and whirlpooled with East Kent Golding. Choose your yeast and additions and craft exactly the dark beer you want. Skip the water for a bold 9.7% Imperial, or dilute for a more sessionable stout.
