I bottled my first brew yesterday, so yay for me, right?
I do, though, have one question: I tried a sample of it, expecting to basically taste flat beer, but that's not what I tasted. I'm new to the idea of critically tasting beer (in the past, it's always just been "I like this beer" or "I don't like this beer as much") so I'm not sure what I was tasting, or really how to describe it. It didn't taste bad, per se, just a little bit off. I've seen people talk about new beer tasting "green"; can someone give me a few more details as to what that really means?
The lighting isn't great, but here's a picture of the sample I used for my FG reading. I call it Winter Is Coming Autumn Ale:
