Playing devils advocate I guess. PSA: only addressing the first line. I agree that I would never want to steer people away from home brewing. Honestly I’ll say there’s never been a hobby I’ve taken more seriously, while at the same time enjoyed it that much. I guess what I was getting at with...

I normally let it rest at room temp for a week after fermentation. This time I left it in the keezer after fermentation at 55°For 2 weeks till I keg’ed it. It’s in my serving keezer at 37°. probably just needs to sit for another week or 2. I guess time will tell. Tasted fine for being flat, all...
