I have just had my first taste of my latest all grain brew which was a blonde. Oh dear oh dear. After 3 sips hoping I would suddenly realise its brilliance I had to admit defeat.
The taste is hard to describe. It was a heavy almost rotten bready flavour right at the back of my tongue. Really was undrinkable.
At the bottling stage it tasted bitter with strong citrus tones. Not bad at all.
I had some issues with chilling the wort afer boiling with this one so it spent far too long in the danger zone. Could this have caused the off flavours but they just didnt show themselves until after conditioning (3 weeks in the bottle)?
Is there any chance more time conditioning could improve the flavour?
Thanks!
