Is it normal for kit beers to result in a decent enough beer but with a vegimite-y smell when you come to drink them?
(vegimite is a yeast based spread, similar to marmite).
I've brewed up a couple of barrels of kits now and they seem to end up tasting fairly similar and all have a very yeasty smell. I've botttled one load and keg'd another but both, when poured in to a glass, smell strongly of yeast and need to be left for a while to breath.
I'm trying one last kit from another manufacturer just in case it was a duff product.
