I just opened my first bottle of Scottish ale after 6 weeks from start. I didn't acheive a very good boil as I tried to boil 6 1/2 gallon on an electric stove top. I think my hot break was incomplete. When it came to bottling I almost forgot to put in the priming sugar. I added my priming sugar to cold tap water and added it to my wort. I think this might be where I contaminated my batch. My beer is cloudy and it has a slight medicinal taste. I'm not going to throw it away as it isn't too bad. Is it possible that the beer will tame down if I wait more somemore time?
By the way, my ale has good carbination.
