I recently brewed a very simple bitter with 7.5 pound of Halcyon and few specialty/caramel grains. I followed all my sanitization procedures and pitched a healthy starter.
Two weeks in primary, then I kegged. The beer is very, very, cloudy and has a slightly sour aroma, tastes fine though. I even used the yeast cake for a brown ale......I originally thought I had a lacto infection, but I am thinking this just may be some poor quality malt. I had an off sour aroma in the primary, but no ropiness or visual signs of infection.
Has anybody had any problems with this malt before?
