Description
Craft Series Italian Style Lager, Sun Chaser
Mangrove Jack's Craft Series Italian Style Lager – Sun Chaser is an extract kit for those who want to brew a light, elegant, and refreshing lager with a clean character and balanced flavor.
This beer is inspired by the Italian lager style, yielding a beautifully golden beer with a clear appearance, clean aromas, and a light malt character. Hallertau Mittelfrüh hops contribute subtle floral notes, while the dry finish makes the beer crisp, easy-drinking, and very pleasant.
The kit comes with M24 Versa Lager dry yeast, which ferments cleanly over a flexible temperature range. This makes Sun Chaser a great choice for both first-time lager brewers and more experienced brewers looking for a simple, high-quality lager kit.
The Craft Series extract kits from Mangrove Jack's contain liquid malt extract, dry yeast, and dry hops if applicable. Sugar for carbonation is not included.
PS! To brew the Italian Style Lager, you will also need 1 kg of dextrose, Brew Enhancer, Pure Malt Enhancer, or liquid malt extract to achieve the desired alcohol percentage. Liquid malt extract or malt-based enhancer will give the beer more body, better mouthfeel, and more malt character than pure dextrose.

Frequently asked questions about Sun Chaser Italian Style Lager
What else do I need besides the kit?
You need 1 kg of dextrose, Brew Enhancer, Pure Malt Enhancer or liquid malt extract. Malt extract or a malt-based enhancer gives more body and malt character than pure dextrose. Sugar or carbonation drops for carbonation are also sold separately.
What temperature should it ferment at?
The recommended fermentation temperature is 18–22 °C. The kit comes with M24 Versa Lager dry yeast, which ferments cleanly in this range, so you do not need a fridge to make a lager.
How much beer does the kit make, and how strong is it?
The kit makes about 23 litres of beer at about 5.1% ABV, with OG 1.043 and 20–26 IBU.
Should I choose an extract kit or a Fresh Wort Kit?
An extract kit is simple and affordable. If you want a beer closer to what the best breweries make, we recommend trying a Fresh Wort Kit. It is ready-brewed wort that simply goes into the fermenter together with the yeast supplied.
