Is there a noticeable difference in how the beer develops after bottling between 12oz and 24oz bottles? For my first batch, I bottled to both, and I swear there was a subtle taste difference when between the two. I cracked open a 22oz after killing a few 12oz'ers, and needless to say I was a little buzzed at the time. Plus my beer palate is probably not as refined as an experienced brewer, so I'm just wondering if it was all in my imagination. I would recreate the experiment, but I'm out of 22oz bottles (gave most of them away to friends/family).
On a separate note, the first brew was pretty tasty, and everyone who tasted it was pleasantly surprised, to include my non-microbrew, Miller drinking father inlaw. The only problem is that the batch size only came out to be 3.5 gallons at bottling and I'm almost out! I'm going to hide the last 4 in the back of my beer fridge to drink in like 6 months.
