ok....disgusting is a little harsh, but I hate it none the less.
I kind of followed a raspberry citrus batch recipe about a month ago, have racked it twice, fermentation is over...but yuck...the citrus is so strong it over powers the raspberry....it is actually sour. I hate sour.
It irritates me because this batch has a beautiful color and is clearing very fast......smells awesome tastes like cough syrup and lemonade.
Do you think aging is going to mellow this out...or maybe back sweetening would improve it? Or both?
I hate to dump it based on the taste right now, being so early on...but I am tempted.
