I'm probably the only guy to screw up a no boil kit. I did a Muntons no boil IPA and I don't know what happened along the way but It does not taste good at all. I was cautious with the sanitation and made sure I was siphoning "quietly" let it sit for about a month and now it has a great head on...

Has anyone ever tried this? I was thinking about just brewing a regular wheat beer and in the secondary putting chopped bananas in there with it. Almost the same method as dry hopping except with bananas not hops.

I'm getting ready to bottle tonight and opened my fermenter to smell a ridiculously strong hoppy/alcohol smell coming from my fermenter. I tried a tiny taste of it and its almost to strong too drink. Is this because its just been dry hopped and hasn't been cleared in the bottles yet or is my...
