Just as the title says? My beer is six days into it, I opened it up and it smells very sweet, and it is almost to FG. I still have to dry hop it in the secondary, will this take it away or does all beer smell like this at first? I hate sweet beer and i really hope this one is not sweet. Its an Pale ale recipe.
Like bananas? It's the yeast. It'll go away in secondary, plus hops.
