I've been brewing for about a year now using the Mr. Beer kits and recently brewed my first non-Mr. Beer recipe. It was an IPA recipe that was recommended by the employees at a home brew store. I followed the recipe pretty accurately. Having tasted the first couple bottles of this beer, it tastes nothing like an IPA. Rather, it tastes like a Hefeweizen. Isuually when you screw up a recipe it ends up tasting bad, so I am wondering if anyone can explain how this happened. It tastes great, but it is definitely not an IPA.
