I've been brewing off and on for a little while now, and as of late I have been getting the same kind of off-flavor with everything I've been brewing (a saison and a kolsch have been my latest 2 victims.). I deep cleaned all of my equipment after the saison turned for the worst, but I just started tasting it with the kolsch now too. It seems that the beers taste fine out of the fermenter and right after conditioning but after sitting in the fridge for a few more weeks, they get the off flavor.
If I had to describe the off-flavor, it's almost cherry-like and maybe a little bit on the metallic side. It's also fairly solvent-like with a burn going down.
Prior to this flavor coming up, they tasted excellent and I was very happy with them.
Any ideas as to how these off-flavors are finding their way in and developing so late in the process?
Thanks in advance!
