I got an Amber beer ingredient kit a few years ago as an Xmas present and just recently got back into brewing again. Its been sitting in a dark cupboard all this time, the kit is composed of a plastic bag sealed with liquid malt extract, and 2 vacuum sealed packs of hop pellets, no grains or anything. Its for a 5 gallon batch. I threw out the original yeast long ago but recently ordered some muntons dry yeast and was planning on giving it a try, unless anyone can think of why not to. Does this liquid extract go bad after a while? Its probably about 3-4 years old. I'm assuming the hops should be fine since they're a preservative themselves, is that right?
