Howdy.
Long time lurker, first time poster.
We recently brewed a Bock. It has been enjoyable but not great so far but I attribute that to it only being bottle for 2.5 weeks. I know it will get better with more time in the bottle.
Here is my question....
How much bottle variation is normal?
Last night we had 3 beers.....
1st one...typical for the batch so far. Very thin head, but decent carbonation. Still a little young, but coming along nicely.
2nd one...beautiful thick rocky tan head, nice sweet malty flavor profile, decent mouth feel but not as heavy as I like in a Bock. This was a Wow beer.
3rd one....typical for the batch but with a acrid bitterness.
Pretty much they all have been on track with the first one mentioned above but #2 & #3 threw me off.
