Was a little curious about this in retrospect of trying my first AG beer I brewed about 6 weeks ago. Although it was good for only being in the bottle for 3 weeks I was a little disappointed in the taste a little. I'm assuming the taste is from being green and only really conditioning a week but I don't remember my Extract version tasting like that when I tasted it at about 3 weeks in the bottle as well.
Has anyone noticed a difference in aging between the two styles? Does AG brews tend to take a little longer to fully devolope than extract or PM brews?
My recipe is a robust porter and due attenuation much higher than my extract version my FG was about .009 lower with the AG version. Increasing the ABV from 5.1% to 6.25%. I'm assuming that has a little to do with the taste difference between the two versions.
