Opinions please.

Can people tell me which brand of recipe kits they have had the best results with I have only home-brewed one beer so far and it was a true brew nut brown ale kit. Didn't think about tasting my wort, wish I had, but I will do my first tasting when I do a gravity reading after it has been in the fermenter 14 days. Maybe true brew is the best brand for recipe kits I don't know?

Cooper's & Munton's appear pretty often, though I've never used a "kit" per-say.

Many here use kits from Midwest & Northern Brewer & say they're great. My wife's 1st was a Brewer's Best kit which is pretty good. I've done a lot of my own recipes with cooper's Original Series cans. I got sent a free Cooper's International Series kit for an English Bitter I've got fermenting 1 week tomorrow,I'll take an FG then. It's said to brew up quick. I believe it,as my OS lager (1st brew) reached FG in 12 days.
So,in summary,I'd say get a kit from NB or Midwest. Better selection of American styles many seem to like. But cooper's & Munton's do have some gems that are fun to experiment with when you get to that stage. It was 2nd stage rather quickly for me.

Are you looking for something with everything in a can, or a kit with some specialty grains, malt extract, and hops ?
