Homebrewers-Whats your favorite extract kit?

That depends....what style you lookin' fer? We talking dark, light, wheat, rye, scotch, Belgian, cerveza, stout, hop-bomb......you need to give a little more to go on. I can make several recommendations.....also there is a great resource for HB if you haven't been there check out

sorry for directing attention away from this great forum, but it doesn't have near the depth of beer knowledge as the above, and Team of 11 feel free to delete if you wish.

Im on Homebrewtalk also. Great forum.
I pretty much like all styles. For right now Im just looking for a good over all kit that isnt too difficult. Im just curious on what some favorite kits are of other homebrewers. Ones that turned out great!

Ok, good to know. The best one I have done so far, and I mean hands down crowd pleasers, a Brewer's Best with steeping grains Pilsner and a Brewer's Best Wheat with apricot extract added in. 5 gal. corneys of both gone in their own respective single nights with less than 5 people on each and plenty of other beers available. People just could not get enough of them.

Also, the AHS knockoff kits are usually spot on if you know of a brew you want to clone, but you may already know that.

I've done 2 of the Brewer's Best kits American Micro Style Pale Ale and a Dinkelweizen. Both turned out quite nice but needed you to steep the grains but you shouldn't be afraid of it at all it's easy. "Cleanliness is next to Godliness" as they say.

What is this AHS you speak of?
AND
Are there any online places to purchase my stuff from that can save me some green?
Muchos gracious

I bought all my equipment from midwestsupplies.com and so far all of my recipe kits. A few other good ones are:
