Bottled first batch yesterday...

And I tated some, it tasted watered down almost? I made a weizenbier with a lme kit. Is this normal?

In my (admittedly limited) experience, you should be getting the final flavor when you go to bottles, all you're adding is carbonation. The fact that it's not refrigerated should make you taste it even more. What was your OG/FG?

A lot of people perceive the taste of uncarbonated beer to be watered down. The carbonation is an important part of the flavor profile of many beers. I wouldn't worry about it.

Ok thanks. I guess I've never had a non carbonated beer before so....

Like slowbie stated, flat beer is often perceived as "watered down." You'd be amazed at the difference in perceived flavor, richness and character once things get carbonated.
