Ok, so I've tried 2 malt-extract beers that I brewed and both of them tasted weird. I made a mash kit that turned out pretty well, but I seem to have problems with these extract kits (doesn't make sense right?)
So both of these beers that I finished and tasted have tasted I guess too malty.. Also, both of them get a head when I first pour them, but it almost immediately goes away. Does anybody know what could be causing the bad taste? The only thing I can think of is that I fermented them in my basement and the temperature was a bit too cold (sometimes it gets down to 50 degrees). The 2 beer styles I made were a brown ale and a hefeweizen.
