For my 4th batch I brewed an extra pale ale extract kit with specialty grains from northern brewer. It sat in primary for 2 weeks and then secondary for almost 3 weeks. I just tried the beer after two weeks of bottle conditioning and it seems pretty sweet, with not much hop flavor at all. Similar to my cream ale I brewed my first time. Also there is plenty of carbonation so I thought it would be ready. Do I jst need to wait longer? I would have thought that I would at least be able to taste the hop flavor I was looking for in a pale ale even if it still needed conditioning time.
Is there anything I can do to it now? Or just wait a couple weeks to give it a final judging? Maybe I've just goten used to drinking such hoppy beers like modus that I was expecting too much. Haha, but a couple of my beers have also seemed pretty sweet and never changes much. What can I do to make my beer taste better!!?
