Just pulled my belgian trippel from the cellar and it tastes burnt? Kid of like what a black ember from a firepit smells like. Or if you are camping and what your clothes smell like the next day. I can only assume that this is similar to an astringetn flavor.
This is the recipe.

2 lbs 1.4 oz Carapils (Briess) (1.5 SRM) Grain 5.29 %

1.50 oz Saaz [2.66 %] (15 min) Hops 2.4 IBU
3.90 oz Spalter [1.70 %] (15 min) Hops 3.9 IBU
0.65 items Campden Tablet (Mash 60.0 min) Misc
0.65 tsp Irish Moss (Boil 10.0 min) Misc

Notes
Stuck sparge... After messing with it for an hour, emptied, cleaned and started over. Ended up doing 30 minutes at 150 degrees after an hour and a half at 140-142.

In summary... I have made this recipe in a 5 gallon batch on a different water source and it was great. I did have a stuck sparge and it took an hour to get it unstuck. It was stuck at 142, so not too hot. I treated the water for chorine and chloramine and ph 5.2. I know about further water treatments but have never had issues and even just finished drinking a kolsch that was made later with same treatments. It is the same grain mill as the kolsch. I made a huge starter using mr malty numbers.
I am gonna throw it back in the cellar for 6 months and see what happens...
