Opened a bottle of my first batch today. It was made with a Coopers Stout kit.
It has only been conditioning for 4 days but I wanted to be sure they were carbonating.
Good news: They are carbonating just fine (used Coopers drops).
Bad-ish news: It doesn't taste too great. Smells a bit like raisins, and also tastes a bit like raisins minus the sugar. Not much else going on. Very very dry finish.
Does anyone have any strong idea of where these bottles are headed taste-wise? Any alarm bells going off?
