I'm not sure exactly what temperature I am serving it at but I usually set it out for 10-20 mins before drinking it. I've always found that the flavor of beer changes significantly with temp but no matter what temp this is served at, it's still bitter.

Thank you for all the recomendations. Looking back I think I did bottle to soon. I didn't have a SG but when I transfered it the gravity was 1.0181. Final gravity was 1.0149 and the target gravity was 1.010-1.012. I currently have a honey ale sitting in primary. How close to the target should...

So I made Big River brown extract kit from Midwestsupply. I brewed on June 10th, transferred to secondary 8 days latter, than bottled two weeks after that. It's been setting in the bottles for 3 1/2 weeks and I am still getting a very green taste. It's bitter at the beginning and not nearly as...

Hello, I'm relatively new here but I've found the most common advice is to wait. Patience is the key to brewing. Also it might help if we had a little more info such as how long after brewing did the airlock activity start and stop, what yeast did you use, and if you have any gravity readings.

Great, now I'm paranoid. I just brewed the same honey bee ale 3 days ago. I was hoping it would be ready this summer but now it sounds like it won't be ready untill the fall or Christmas. BTW what was your OG? Mine was 1.040 which seemed a little low, but I might of drawn it from the top...
