I have a Brown Ale and an IPA that I carbed about 2 weeks ago and they both taste a little off, kinda like soap but the flavor is in and out and from what I have read I think it will age away.
Can I take these kegs out of the keezer to age at 70ish for a few weeks once they are carbed and have been "tapped"?
I have been scrubbing the net for this flavor and I cannot seem to narrow it down to one thing causing it. The common response is soap in the glass, which is definitely not the case. The other cause I found was extended time on yeast cake, Brown ale was on it 28days and the IPA was racked at 21 days so I kinda doubt that has been to long.
Is this mild but noticeable flavor just green beer or has anyone experienced this issue?
I have all new equipment that was properly washed with PBW and sanitized with Star-san. Tap water was used (potential bad move) but apparently San Antonio water is not half bad. The kits were from two different places so I eliminated that as the cause.
Brewing tonight with bottled water just in case, hopefully I don't have 15gl of soapy beer...
