Victoria bitter isnt a bitter, its a lager, so as far as coopers kits go your better of getting the lager tin. The bitter is darker and sweeter thanks to english crystal malt. Maybe try a lager kit with BE1 and a couple of sachets of dried lager yeast fermented cold, or be lazy like me and use one sachet of us05 fermented cold

Perhaps they meant the European Lager tin which comes with a true lager yeast??
