I am posting in the Beginners cause this is my second batch and I consider myself still a nOOb
As of yesterday, my beer had been bottled for 3 weeks. I popped one open, to find there was very little carbonation in it. I poured it into my glass and there was no foam. It has a very bitter taste to it (but I've never brewed a Highland Heavy Ale before, so I don't know if that's how it's supposed to taste). Can anyone think of what I did wrong? Obviously I'm not expecting exactly accurate responses, but anything general that I can use. I am, however, still going to drink it (it is still beer damnit).
