Hi folks,
I've sampled a few beers and noticed a very strong skunky aroma and taste. The only thing they seem to have in common is having gone from a keg, to a (brown) bottle for transportation, then put in a serving glass. They were entirely different styles and from 2 different sources, 1 from a local homebrewer who brought samples to a club meeting, and the other from a local brewpub that just started selling growlers to go. Nobody else seems to notice the flavour, and googling didn't turn up anything, so I thought I'd ask here if I'm in some 1%-of-people-who-can-taste-this category or something, although usually I'm not that special.
Cheers,
Marc
