www.brewuk.co.uk do alright by me, always helpful and a wide range of homebrew gear at reasonable prices. They even do cheese making stuff which I'm going to order this week as I've been dying to make feta and mozerella.

I use a place in Bolton called spitting feathers. I always call in but I know they post. They have a good selection and a good web site. The bloke Ste is always happy to take a phone call for advice too

Art of brewing seem to be the cheapest i can find for 2 can kits, they generally delivery in 48 hours, spent 150 for 7 kits in my last order and got them in 26 hours

Thumbs up for Art of Brewing from me too. Kits (beer and wine) are usually the cheapest I can find anywhere, free delivery on £49 spend. More often than not I've had delivery within 24hrs. Don't be put off by the website it's quite old school, but it's actually better than many more modern ones where you struggle to find anything through all the fancy menus, flashing images etc. I'd rather have a long simple list than design perfection.

My only criticism, which applies to many home brew sites, is sparse information on some items. When I first came back to this -no I won't type hobby - obsession - it wasn't really clear to me which were all inclusive and which needed extra sugar/enhancer etc. I did email AOB a couple of times and got comprehensive replies. All in all very happy with their service and esp. prices.

I've had kits from Art of Brewing in less than 24 hours before crap site to look at but speed and prices won't be beaten. For stuff they don't stock i use brewuk.co.uk . Both great sites for different reasons.

Cannot understand why people say crap site!!! What do you want to do look at pretty pics all day?? For kits price and service it's a no brainer...they win hands down and stop fretting what a site looks like!!!

[Gunnerholic]

I'd say that the site doesn't look very professional compared to some of the others out there and it can be quite off-putting if you have no experience of using the site. Not to discredit them though, they do offer a very good quick service with some very good prices on kits etc.

art of brewing is top notch i have recieved the order a couple
of times before the money has gone from my bank
have ordered at 245 on a tues and recieved on wed

Another +1 for Art of brewing,

I was initially concerned about the state of their website only because i was sending credit card details etc, maybe paranoia on my part, but better to be safe than having your trolleys pulled down and being bent over,
but after reading posts from members here who have bought from them, i have since bought from AoB several times without a problem, and will do so again.

[parkerwitton]

Point taken Neil...better be safe than sorry is an old adage.
Like I said if you know what you are after AOB do take some beating....and at the end of the day those who do not have a local homebrew shop near to them all the pennies add up. Not to get carried away I am talking about Kits from AOB.
