Does anyone else agree with the statement that chilling your brew "changes" the flavour??

My batch of canadian blonde has been brewing for 2 weeks now and FG has been 1005 for a few days now from an OG of 1048 so im gona bottle it up and wait patiently :)

Took another reading this morning and its dropped to 1020 so im goin to leave it for another week, panic over haha

No idea what type of yeast it is because it came with the kit and was just in a foil sachet, I dont know how to adjust readings to allow for temp, im relatively new to brewing, ill check again today if its still 1031 ill give it a swirl if its dropped ill leave it

Its not a true lager strain, the kit says to ferment between 21 and 32 degrees celcius, which it has been for a week :/

Blood spot

Drink it

Fermentation is now in full swing :) i was just a little anxious, the lid is swelling and the airlock is bubbling like id expect it to now :)

Also what does RDWHABA mean?

So if i just added the recommended 1kg of sugar the 7g should have been enough but because i put more sugar in then it may have under pitched? Is it worth adding another pack of yeast?
