I hear a lot of talk about beer being too "green." The problem is, I have no idea what "green" tastes like.
I had a couple batches with a funny, almost "green apple" flavor in them, and one of my friends said it could be a product of incomplete fermentation. I replaced the kit yeast with a package of yeast from my local supplier on my last batch. I just opened a bottle after two weeks in the bottle (I know, perhaps a bit early, but I wanted a taste soooo bad) and it's much better, but still has a very, very faint sour apple flavor.
Does this sound like the "green beer" flavor? If not, can someone describe what the green beer flavor tastes like?
Thanks
