Hi,
I got a properly bad tasting batch.
It was simple all grain recipe i did in the past with good results.
But this time I run out of time when chilling worth.
So I had to pitch a 11g pack of rehydrated SafeBrew S-33 into aroun 115F hot worth.
Fermentation seems to be OK (alltho I was not around to see when it kicked in and when it finished) alltho finished a bit high (OG was 1056 , FG 1014 after 3 weeks in primary)
I tasted it after 2 weeks in primary (already at 1014 at that time) and it tasted horribly. Completely metal taste. Undrinkable.
I let it sit for another week and when tasting, it was better. More taste of plastic, only at the end metal taste.
So I said I'll try bottling it in case it will sort itself out... But now, 2 weeks in bottles it still tastes realy bad, same as it was just before bottling.
Anyone had any similar experiences ?
Should I wait a bit more or just dump the beer ?
Matt
