Default first beer...

Building my first bre.. (mr beer canidian draft).
My dad's a wine maker and thought he'd hook me.....
Anyways, the draft call for 7 days...
Is it optimal for 7 days?
Will longer be better?
I can still see some bubbles floating up.
It smells a bit acidic.
Is that normal?
I'll be 7 days in the morning.

......Can I taste test it without causing an issue?

Tasting it at this stage will tell you nothing. You need a hydrometer.
