Northern Brewer Reviews

I ordered a beer kit and, to be fair, it was exactly as described. The instructions were clear enough and the kit itself seems solid, so no real complaints there. The annoying part was the shipping. It took longer than I expected, and it feels like one of those policy loopholes where they can technically say it shipped on time, but you’re still sitting around waiting for it to actually show up. Overall, not a bad purchase, but the shipping side could definitely be better.

I ordered a kit from Northern Brewer i was surprised at how good the beer came out!! I’m still new to brewing, so I wasn’t totally sure what to expect, but it had a really clean flavor and the hops were balanced nicely. A few friends tried it and actually asked if there was more, which felt like a big win!! The instructions were easy to follow too. I’d definitely order from them again

One of the parts was missing from my kit, so I emailed them and they got it sorted really quickly. No back and forth or hassle, just Easy help. happy with how they handled it

Had to send something back. Super easy. They took care of it really quick, no hassle.

I’ve been using the Northern Brewer subscription for a few months now, i’m really happy with it. The kits have been showing up right on schedule, and it’s nice not having to piece together random ingredients every time I want to brew. I also feel like I’m saving a bit compared to placing separate orders all the time. It’s just convenient knowing I’ve got another batch ready to go when I am. No complaints from me so far.

I’ve gotten a few kits from Northern Brewer now, the recipes have been close to what they say. The grain, hops, yeast, all that stuff seemed right, and the beer ended up tasting about like the description. It just makes brew day smoother when I’m not sitting there questioning this or that. Nothing too fancy, but the instructions have been solid and reliable for me.

I usually order from Northern Brewer when they got discount codes or free shipping going on. It saves me a decent amount on kits and other supplies. Checkout was easy too, coupon worked fine and I didn’t have any problems.

I’ve picked up a few pieces of brewing equipment from Northern Brewer over the last couple years, and they’ve held up better than some other gear I’ve bought elsewhere. My kettle and fermenter have both seen plenty of use, and they still look good and work like they should.

Nothing has that cheap or flimsy feel, which I really appreciate because I’m not exactly careful when I’m cleaning everything up. Shipping was smooth too, and based on my experience, I’d definitely buy from them again without overthinking it

I ordered a beer kit from Northern Brewer, and I’ll admit I was a little suspicious at first because I’ve had kits show up before with stale grains or random stuff poorly packed. But everything in this box looked fresh, the grains smelled great, the yeast seemed fine, and nothing was leaking, crushed, or sketchy.

Brew day actually went smoother than I expected, which made me wonder what the catch was, but the beer ended up tasting way better than my last batch from another place. I’m definitely not a pro brewer, so take that for what it’s worth, but the quality seems solid to me. I’d order from them again

I found the prices on brewing supplies to be really good, and it definitely saved me some money. If other home brewers are trying to keep costs down, I think they’d probably appreciate this too.

My order got here super fast, quicker than I thought it would and everything was fine when it arrived so I really don’t have any complaints.

I reached out expecting the usual back-and-forth, but they fixed my issue quickly and didn’t make it a whole thing. super easy. Then for a second I was like, wait, why can’t every support experience be like this? Anyway, no hassle at all

I’m brand new to homebrewing and kind of bought this on impulse because I wanted to just try it already. Northern Brewer ended up making the whole process way less intimidating than I expected. The kit had everything I needed, and the instructions were easy to follow without feeling totally lost. I did have to go back and reread a couple steps, but nothing too confusing. i was shocked that my first batch actually came out decent. For a first-time brewer, this was a really solid start.

It always gets here really fast, which is super nice.

They’ve got a really good selection. I ended up browsing for a while because there was a lot to look through...

I checked the inventory before ordering, and it ended up being accurate. I noticed it listed the exact item and quantity clearly enough, which I appreciated because I tend to double-check little details like that before I buy. Nothing felt confusing, and what showed as available was actually there

Everything got here in one piece, and the box was taped up good. No issues with the packaging at all, so yeah.

I got a brewing kit from Northern Brewer for my brother, and I was a little nervous ordering it because I’m always afraid of getting fooled by stuff that looks better online than it is in person. But it showed up nicely packed, everything looked legit, and it really felt like a fun, thoughtful gift instead of some random last-minute thing. He was excited when he opened it and already started using it, so I’d call it a win.

Everything in my order showed up just how I picked it, with nothing missing and no wrong items. It sounds simple, but that’s really all you want when you place an order, right? Definitely happy with it and I’d order again.

I ordered from Northern Brewer and ended up reaching out to customer service with a question about shipping. They did get back to me and were helpful once they replied, which I appreciated, but the wait was a little longer than I was hoping for. I think I just wanted a bit more reassurance that everything was on track. Overall, it wasn’t a bad experience, just average. I’d probably order again, but I’d feel better if response times were a little quicker next time.
