So I brewed a Graff a few weeks back and while most people say it tastes pretty good right off the bad Mine smells a little of sulfur, a bit of spice and apple and tastes like vague apple up front with citrusy tones on the finish and boozey I guess and very bitter on the finish.
Most cider's I have had are sweeter. This one is slightly sweet at the front and then finish gets quite bitter.
I followed the recipe exactly how the OP made the recipe. I used US-05. I did not take a OG and FG unfortunately.
While Ciders are not my favorite I can drink them and they are decently pleasant, just not my favorite drink. I have had the wife, as well as some siblings taste it and all have the same feel about it.... bitter, not very sweet and "tastes off".
I believe I used Ahtanum hops.
It has been in the keg for about a week and a half, and before that it was in the primary for 3 weeks.
Think it's too young still or just a bad batch somehow?
