I just brewed BierMuncher's OktoberFAST using Safale 04 for my brew. I just kegged my first 5 gallons of it and when I took my FG sample I got a lot of banana ester aroma. It finished at about 1.011. I pitched and fermented around 63 - 65 and after initial fermentation was done bulk aged it at ambient (around 70) for about 2.5 weeks.
Anyone have any thoughts on this? I'm kind of surprised by this, I wasn't really expecting it. Maybe it will fade once it's chilled & carbed, but I'm just curious for some input on people who've had similar outcomes.
My og was 1.056 and I had about 74% efficiency. Attenuation was about 78%.
Thanks all!
