I'm thinking of joining these guy's this year.

www.yeastwranglers.ca

I think there's some links to stores that stock homebrew equipment on their site.

go to chapters and pick up a magazine called "Brew your own" ( www.byo.com ) Thats what I did. TONS and TONS of differnent companies in there offering many different kinds of equipment, hops, yeast, everything.
Even full package deals in the quanitities you want, as well as very detailed instructions of how to brew it.

Yeah its pretty much all the info you'd ever need.... short of getting a degree towards becoming a brewmaster. :dunno:
The website doesn't do it justice there is probably 60 different reciepes in this one issue alone, as well as walk through of all the different brewing equipment.

Best to buy online for the best selection towards obtaining the proper ingredients for the type of beer you want.

Cheap asses. Buy TNT beer if you are that desperate.

There is a place next to Jdmsource, that sells beer kits and wine kits. Maybe try that out.
