Hi Im just starting out and im wondering about the kits with the wort allready made in the bag, just curious if these are any good and if anybody has experience with these? Thanks.

Look at it this way. Do you want to learn to make HOMEBREW, or are you interested in taking a few shortcuts to having some homebrew?
Do you want to learn to make HOMEMADE gourmet dinners from scratch, or do you want to put pre-made food in the microwave?
It's about the same thing. The real finesse/skill of homebrewing comes in creating the wort. Fermentation is the easy part.
Also, brewday where you create the wort is CERTAINLY the fun part! You'll be missing out on the fun part, and really only doing the tedious part.
So, if you want to actually learn to homebrew, skip the pre-made wort and look into extract kits. If you just want to make some homebrew the "microwave" way, no shame in fermenting some premade wort, you just aren't going to really learn much about making homebrew that way.

East coaster eh? how's the pulp mill?

Easy? maybe, but also probably the most important part.
I know of small beer companies that buy wort from a bigger brewhouse then ferment, age & blend to bottle something very good and unique. That's not Hamburger Helper/Microwave dinner.
