So I took the lid off the fermenter and got a whiff of bananas, I know I've seen some post about it but can't find them now. What happened during the fermenting process please let me know this is my first batch and I'm slightly disappointed.
Well it's been a few weeks since I bottled this beer and went to try one it still has the banana smell but reminds me of a dortmunder or a blonde. It's not a bad beer for my first batch ever I just won't ever use coopers yeast again.
Thanks! I'm going to be making a German pilsner with an American hoppy taste. I will be using us05 for this batch I will let you guys know how it turns out
I havent lagred anything ive only been making ales but im not sure US-05 will work for lagering. I think the ferm temp is too cold for that yeast. Id check it out to make sure before you use try and use it. Someone correct me if im wrong.
