OK, So the taste is plastic-y, for sure sounds like chlorophenols, but the weird thing is that this was a batch that I kegged half and bottled half...the keg tasted fantastic (BM's OktoberFAST) but I just opened the bottles after 2-3 weeks (bottle conditioned and chilled for 72 hours) and they all taste like this.
Weird that I haven't changed my water, and even weirder that the other half of the batch that I kegged was fine.
This was the aforementioned OktoberFAST, sub all Munich instead of Munich AND Vienna, and fermented with WLP810 (SF Steam Lager), temp controlled ferm at 58-59 until TG, two days diacetyl rest at 68, then cold crashed for a week at 38. I noticed the carbonation isn't quite there yet in the bottles I've opened, so perhaps I'll leave them be for a while.
Any thoughts?
