I'm thinking of brewing a headcracker with more Kick!
Do you think Doug means to add the 500g of sugar to the wort?

to make 40 pints of what I drink and it's a month 4 weeks from begining to totally mouth watering. However after the week in the barrel you can sup it ok.
1 x Woodfords Headcracker Kit the whole lot ie both tins of malt
1 x Youngs Barley Wine
1 x Dark DSM
2 x packets of Nottingham Ale Yeast
1 x 500g of Sugar (for priming in barrel)
Do your wort and add some sugar at barrel time i usuallu use 1/2 a teaspoon per pint for the barrel.
As easy as any other kit and makes a smashing winter warmer. Or good for weather proofing your decking.
