Good but slightly fruity...

Tasted my first batch last night after one week in the bottle (Alpine amber). It was pretty-much carbonated which was great, It tasted good as well, but it had that fruity undertone to it. Im not surprised tho, as the fermentation temps got pretty high up in the 80's. And ive heard that's what leads to those fruity flavours. My question is during conditioning time will the yeast break these fruity flavours back down to give me a better beer?? or is there anything i can do to lessen the "fruitiness?"

Cheers.

 

I've found that over time your beer will mature and mellow out a bit to be a little smoother. Whether or not if all of the "fruitiness" goes away, is hard to say. A week in the bottle is pretty young, I've found that at least a month or more in the bottle does most beers a lot of good.

 

It will mellow out some, but if you fermented in the 80's, I would say it is probably there to stay.

 

what kind of yeast did you use?

 

i will have to agree here

 

Yeast was Nottingham (dry).

The fruitiness is actually fading a bit.. still there tho. I think its pretty good for my first batch though!!
Thanks guys!

Cheers
