Come on guys! Is it fair to be discussing this on a forum kindly hosted by Home Brew Online — at great cost I may add. There are plenty of other beer forums more suitable for this discussion. HBO offers an  excellent range of ciders and Mexican Cerveza, all at competitive prices. These are the kits you should be discussing.
