Here are my notes from 2008:

hambleton bards bitter dry kit 12 feb og 1032. rouse + yeast nutrient 15th. fg 1009 3.2% bottled 18th feb 50g priming sugar added to fermenter. undrinkable RUBBISH

The only kit I've ever tipped away. I never tried another.

Worst kit I have ever made - forget about dry kits and stick to 3k malt kits Milestone or Woodfordes

forget about dry kits

I wouldn't say that. Brewer's Choice have been good for me, made up with 1kg dry spray malt.

Don't know about Hambleton Bard, never tried them, but I wouldn't write dry kits off per se.

Milestone, Woodfordes, Hambleton Bard = Muntons, all the same company regardless of dry or liquid malt

Ah well, we'll see how it goes
