There's no extract. You dump in a pail, add yeast and voila!
If you are telling me this is better than the typical OBK extract kit, ie. the real "kits" with hops, quality yeast, steeping grains, DME, and LME... you convinced me I will try it when I want an easy brew day.I've made this kit before and I loved it. I will probably make it again if I can find one, as I believe its seasonal.
As for comparing this kit to Ontario Beer Keg's kits, I've made a few of their recipes ( Including their American IPA and West Coast IPA ), and while they were decent, they didn't come anywhere being near as good as this one. 500 ml micro brew beers here in Quebec where I live go between 4-6 dollars a bottle, and a kit like this ( 45 bucks ) nets about 43 pints, so just over a dollar a pint. A steal in my opinion!
I hear their Brown Ale is delicious, as well as their double oatmeal stout! I've yet to try them!
