This is my third wheat beer kit (two Wilko wheats), and the best so far.
Everything needed in the kit (priming sugar and all), my only advice is to let it ferment for longer than the instructions (two weeks for me).
I struggled to keep the brewing temps down, constantly hitting 24C so it was going to have a lot of the bubblegum flavours (something I like).
Lively brew (like the Wilko one) spewing out of the blowoff tube quite quickly.
It's been about 3 weeks racked in the bottle and is the best Wheat beer I've done, very close to the bottled stuff you get in the shop (Paulaner etc.).
Will get again when I'm looking for more wheat. I've also done the Festival Razorback IPA which has turned out a winner, I'm doing their Steam Beer tomorrow, very happy with Festival so far.
