Looking for a nice extract/partial mash Hefeweizen kit

[conebone69]

Can anyone point me to a kit where you had great success and flavor? Looking for a "lawn mower" type beer for mid-late august.

I saw this one on MWS: http://www.midwestsupplies.com/review/product/list/id/1495/

This one has great reviews too. Has anyone given this a try?

I've used the brewmasterwarehouse web site for ideas, then go to my local supplier for ingrediants (saves me shipping $).

Here's a few extract ideas:

Good kit!

Did you try that kid? Is the color true to that picture?

Mine looks like that, if anything a little lighter and clearer because I use whirlfloc.

Do you keg? Is that why you use whirlfloc?

I've been using Irish moss 15 mins before flameout.

For my next Hefe, I'm probably going for this (partial mash):

I just use whirlfloc because it's cheaper than irish moss (at least via my lhbs) and does a good job.
