Why Choose BIB Kits?

Black Rock’s Bag-in-Box range is the easiest way to brew brewery-quality craft beer at home. No more sugar additions, no more second can, no more heating cans — just mix the bag with water, pitch the yeast, and away it goes!

This is the same wort sold to professional microbreweries, repackaged for home brewers who want top-tier results without the complexity of all-grain brewing.

Why Choose Black Rock?

Crafted in a state-of-the-art Krones brewery, Black Rock kits are brewed using only the finest New Zealand malts before being concentrated down for your convenience. This means you can create authentic craft beer at home without the costly, time-consuming all-grain process.

Whether you’re enjoying a glass after mowing the lawn, hosting a barbecue, or just want a crisp, easy-drinking lager in the fridge, Black Rock Classic Lager is a reliable favourite for any occasion.

 

Looking For A Food Match? The Black Rock Hazy BIB Goes Well With…. 

1. Grilled Salmon: The oily richness of salmon pairs nicely with the fruity notes of a Black Rock Hazy, complementing its hoppy profile.

2. Spicy Chicken Wings: The heat from the wings is beautifully balanced by the fruity, slightly sweet flavors of the Black Rock Hazy.

3. Fish and Chips: The classic New Zealand favorite gets a zesty lift from the fruity undertones of a Hazy.

4.Summer Salads: Think fresh greens tossed with fruits like mango or peach, topped with a citrusy dressing to match the Hazies character.

5.Cheese Platters: Opt for cheeses like Gouda or Havarti that have a mild creaminess to harmonize with the fruity and hoppy notes of the beer.

 

 

Additional Fermentables Required

None. Everything you need is already in the BIB — no sugar, no second can.

It is recommended to dry hop this brew – See Optional Extras tab for suited options. 

Optional Extras

Boost your brew with these recommended extras for better flavour, fermentation, and finish:

Craft Yeast
The Craft IPA does include 1x SafAle US-05 (11.5g) craft yeast. To improve fermentation consider adding a second SafAle US-05 and using a total of 23g.

Note: When using craft yeast always check the ideal fermentation termperature range for that yeast. 

Yeast Nutrients
Add yeast nutrient to support a healthy fermentation, ensuring your yeast performs at its best for full attenuation and a consistent result.

Dry Hopping

Dry hopping this brew is an important step to achieve the desired hazy finnish – dry-hop this brew with 100-200g of your favourite hops. Here are five great options:

  • Bold & layered – Use Mosaic + Nelson Sauvin together for a complex mix of mango, blueberry, gooseberry, and white wine notes.
  • Citrus & crisp – Try NZ Cascade + Motueka to combine bright grapefruit, lime, and floral citrus for a refreshing IPA twist.
  • Smooth & aromatic – Choose Pacifica for sweet orange marmalade and floral undertones that balance the IPA’s malt backbone.
  • Juicy & tropical – Try the Tropical Burst Hop Blend (Riwaka, Motueka, Nelson Sauvin) for passionfruit, gooseberry, and grapefruit with a punchy tropical burst.
  • Bright & floral – Go with the Fruit and Floral Hop Blend (Nelson Sauvin, Pacifica, Riwaka) for white grape, sweet citrus, grapefruit, and a crisp floral lift.
