I recently made three batches with 833. They all had this subdued smoked taste to them. If you could translate the flavor into the smell from a fireplace.
I've been thinking about if there's anything in my setup, but I don't think it is. I've only had this experience with 833. Have also made lagers with 830 and 3470 without that smokey-thing. I heard from another local homebrewer that he also has gotten a smoked taste from his 833 beers.
I do traditional cold fermentations, none of that "quick-lagering" thing or warm lager fermentations, so there's nothing much to hide anything which is off behind.
Anyone else with this experience?
