All,
I brewed a hefeweizen about 10 days ago. I cultured some yeast out of a bottle of SN Kellerweis for this beer. It seems to have fermented out pretty well, to 1.014...but...the beer reeks of hydrogen sulfide! I mean bad. I've had lagers that smelled like sulfur, but nothing like this. It stank up the whole first story of the house. My wife evicted this beer from the kitchen so it's out in the garage. Did I do something wrong here? Should I let it age some more or dump it? The beer tastes like a hefeweizen except for the powerful sulfur smell and taste.
