I found this receipt online and thought I would try it out. Fallowed it to the T.
Im getting ready to keg the beer and took a little sample taste after doing FG. Its so damn bitter I couldn't drink it. Other than leaving it age about 35 years does anyone have any ideas how to mellow out the lemon flavor before I keg it or am I going to have to dump it?
Thank You
