What's in the box: Each box usually holds Fresh Press ingredient packs that each make 12 pints, and the Pinter brew and tap machine comes with your first order on the plan.
Pinter is a countertop brew and tap machine that comes with a beer plan. The plan sends ingredient packs, which Pinter calls Fresh Press packs. You mix a pack with water and leave it to brew for 4 to 7 days. Then you chill it in the fridge for at least 3 days while it carbonates, and you pour straight from the machine with no bottling or kegging. Each pack makes 12 pints. Pinter says the beer stays fresh and fizzy in the machine for up to 30 days once it is ready. The range has more than 25 beers, including lagers, hazy IPAs, stouts and ciders, some made with well known breweries. Pinter says it was named World Microbrewery of the Year at the 2025 World Beer Awards. The current offer gives you the machine free when you sign up to the flexible beer plan. On the US site, packs usually cost $25.99 to $38.99, which works out to a little over $2 a pint. The main page does not explain the minimum commitment or how to cancel, so check those terms before you claim the free machine. Pinter is much simpler than traditional home brewing. However, you are tied to Pinter's own packs, and the machine needs space in your fridge for days at a time.
