Long story short, I made a cranberry wheat ale with this yeast, but I definitely didn't let it ferment long enough. It spent a week in the primary and then just under 3 weeks in the secondary (like any other normal ale).
It has been in bottles for 2 weeks and tastes very medicinal. I probably fermented it too hot, and I didnt have a wort chiller at the time, so it also took forever to cool.
Is this beer a total write off? Should I even bother letting it age in the bottles. I got my recipe from my lbhs, and it didn't come with a specific fermentation schedule. Clearly due dilligence is required when getting fancy.
