I kegged my Maibock style ale after an 11 day primary, and tomorrow will be one week since kegging.
Recipe was 5lb pilsner, 5lb Vienna, 2lb Munich. Single hopped with hallertau, 1oz for 60min 2oz for 30. Fermented with BRY97 @64. Mash was 152 degrees for 60min and I batch sparged.
It was tasting, dare I say, great this past Saturday and Sunday. Fairly malty, with big toffee notes from the Vienna/Munich. I went for another sample today and it was "meh"; it had very little flavor.
My keg fridge is about 44 degrees and the only change was I bumped the psi from 5 to 10 on Sunday. No shaking, just increases the gas. I even let the sample warm a bit and I poured off a few ounces to write off the icky beer in line flavor.
I've never had this happen before... What gives? Sorry if this reads weird, I'm posting from the mobile app.
Thanks!
