Hi guys, after much searching I still cannot find a solution to my "problem"...my last two batches have had an "off" flavor to them...but it's something I've never tasted, so it's very difficult to describe.
I noticed it first in a Cream Ale...having never had Cream Ale before, I thought maybe that was just how it tasted...now I have sampled a bottle of a Nut Brown Ale, and I can pick it out again, although not nearly as strong..
So my issue is this...the flavor is not sour, offensive, sweet, tangy, tart, etc. etc....it is truly unique therefore I have nothing to compare it too...I know that doesn't help much, but maybe some of you have experienced this...oh and all my equip/bottling equip was clean and sanitized with starsan
Could this be an ester? Prior to having a refridgerated fermentation chamber, these 2 brews fermented high...74-76, with notty yeast. I haven't finished a brew with the new setup yet to compare...
Could my beer just be green? Both were sampled around 6wk mark...
Sorry for the long post, but this is concerning me as I have more brews in the pipeline coming that cannot be modified at this point...thanks for reading, I hope you guys can help..this community is amazing!
