Brew friends,
My last three batches that have been bottled, have all yielded a "abbey style" taste to them after a few weeks of conditioning. If I keg, I do not have this problem at all. Last three batches were a trippel, a honey ale, and a pumpkin ale. I am partial mash brewing (have not yet made the leap to all grain). I can provide recipes if needed, but since it only seems to occur when bottling....well, I'm stumped. What could be causing the unintended flavor in the bottling process? I sanitize the bottles in the dishwasher on a heat only cycle. Any input your collective brew minds can provide would be fantastic. I am sooooo frustrated at the moment.
