I've recently brewed a mango IPA using the BIAB method. It's turned out really well. Very hoppy and lovely taste. I bottled 5l of it and kept the other 10l for my keg.
Ive bought a 5l keg which I've used for the first time with this brew. The beer tasted nice and had a nice head, it was just a little darker than what i anticipated. I force carbonated the beer using the Co2 bulbs. The beer had a smooth feel to it, was not very bitter and if anything a little too sweet. But was nice none the less.
I've quickly supped the keg and just moved onto the bottles now. I've just opened a bottle and it looks and kinda taste like a completely different beer. The colour is alot lighter and clearer than what it was in the keg. The aroma isn't half as good but it doesn't taste as sweet and has a nice bitterness to it at the end.
It's bizarre that it's the same beer but just taste completely different.
I'm still abit of a novice at brewing. Have I done something wrong? Do I need to change anything in my kegging process?
I've attached some photos to show what I mean.
Any feedback, if any, would be appreciated. Cheers.
