Has anyone ever had a brew that just won't age well? I posted this in the Extract thread, but I'll start this one too. After 3-4 weeks in the bottle, my IPA's flavor just fads out to a watery taste. Got any idea's?? I had one from my first batch from back in Jan. and even that one was just bitter water, no real "beer" flavor was left.
The recipe is the Brewers Best IPA kit, I bottle in brown bottles the first time, and in green pints the second. I've been very careful about storage temp. and light exposer. I even tried storing a few of my latest one in the fridge, to try and perserve them, thinknig maybe my Apt. might be to warm, but they all taste the same, crappy.
