Drinking my first brew. Tastes kind of strange. Pretty well no alcohol content. Seeing as how I only used 2 quatrs of LME for 5 gallons...:( (lessons learned) Good carbonation and all that, But my biggest frown is the CHILL HAZE... What causes this. What can a guy do to prevent it?

Reading lots on how to make an AG brew... I understand all the ingredients and processes. But do you Mash in all of your base grains, specialty grains, and flavouring grains and every other grains all in the same mash @ the same time? I understand that there are some exceptions to the norm...
