Could you use the MJ LME x3 I.e. 3.6kg to make a drinkable beer, just adding spare hops and yeast?
I very much doubt it, but why would you bother even trying it?

Exactly and thanks.I did exactly that last year and it was a very nice beer. LME is a perfectly legitimate base for a beer and Mangrove Jacks LME is cheap and good.
Have you tried doing it or is that opinion?I very much doubt it, but why would you bother even trying it?
It’s a great cheap way to try building your own brew, I’ve done this for a few small batches, tried out different yeasts, hops for boil and dry etc, add in a few grain additions. All of them have been very drinkable, a few very good! (IMHO).Have you tried doing it or is that opinion?
As a relative newbie, I've heard the tales of kveik - what conditions would be suggested for brewing the Kveik IPA?
I have the Mango on tap at the moment and its really nice. EnjoyI've got one of these brewing at the moment. Had an excellent time with the Juicy Session IPA, and with a newborn potentially limiting brewing time I thought I'd give this a shot. 10 days in and it's nearly done. Trial jar tastes promising so watch this space.
I've made the MJ's Juicy twice now. Very drinkable. It's my mother in law's favourite and a top three of my wife's. Have a lot of lovely Belgian beers made. Just put on the Munton's Hazy IPA like you yesterday. It's bubbling vigorously like nothing else today! Hoping to try it by New Year.I've got one of these brewing at the moment.

Have also got the Munton's Hazy IPA to whack on straight after with a view of having both ready for Xmas!
I made the Juicy Session IPA earlier in the summer and it was gorgeous , I loved it. A couple of months ago I tried another batch and after a couple of weeks of conditioning I tried a bottle. I was disappointed and like you say there was a little hint of sourness and a twang. So I left it for a few weeks, tried another bottle and it was still not great. However last night I tried one and it has come right, it tasted great, no sourness or twang. A beautiful beer, but it took a couple of months of conditioning to get there.Ten days conditioning and decided to give a bottle a test. Reassuringly it's cleared very well already, which for me is a first Lovely fruity smell and taste with a nice malty balance. There's a slight sourness at the end which I'm not sure if it's intentional or just down to age, and a slight twang possibly thanks to bottle carbing. But it's still young and so far looks to be a winner
