I took my first hydrometer reading tonight after 4 days of fermentation. I was unable to take a reading after I brewed because it had not come in the mail yet.
After I took the reading, which was 1.007, I tried the beer and it tasted very bitter. Will this bitter taste even out or will the final product taste like this? Is there anything I can do to tone down the bitter taste?
The recipe I brewed was a Fat Tire Clone kit from midwestern supply. The instructions were to boil the bittering hops for 60 min.
