Maybe this is dumb question but I just racked my first batch of beer over the weekend. As had been mentioned in a couple of places, I decided to take a quick sip of it to see how it tasted. It really smelled awesome but the taste was off to me. It tasted quite bitter another taste-tester in the household said it tasted like "soap" (maybe I used too much star-san being crazy about sanitizing everything?).
The taste aside, does the beer change flavor more in the bottles? If so, what causes this flavor to change? My understanding is if I had a kegerator, one could force carbonate it and drink it now; if that's true does that mean what I tasted is what I have?
Thanks in advance!
