So I brewed a saison about 4 weeks ago. Siphoned it into a keg, purged all of the oxygen out, made sure my keg had zero leaks, then put it in the fridge at 45 degrees under 25 psi for about 2.5-3 days. Did all of the standard carbonating/kegging stuff etc.
The first 1.5 gallons of the keg or so were perfect. All of the saison flavor was there, it was great. cloudy, perfect beer. Now that I'm down to about 2 gallons left, the beer has changed dramatically.
It is almost crystal clear and has lost a lot of the saison flavor. Now it just tastes like a very high ABV pilsner (pilsner malt was on the bill). I'm really confused by this. I didn't use any refining agents. There are no leaks in my keg. I purged the keg plenty.
Anyone have any ideas?
