I brewed a PM awhile back and opened my "2 week bottle" today to try. It had a kinda old green tea aftertaste to it which wasnt horrible but not what i wanted. It had this same taste on bottling day but was much stronger so hopefully it is going to mellow out. Does anyone know what ingredient caused this and if it will mellow alot as it sits longer.
