My first beer was an extract kit from Brewers Best for an American Pale Ale and it spent 1 week in primary, 3 weeks in secondary and a week in the bottle and well...it tastes fairly sweet and bitter. Not good, not terrible but if I ordered it in a bar i'd send it back. I know it's only been a week in the bottle and it SHOULD get better, but I guess I've been so looking forward to tasting it that I'm kind of bummed. Especially after I had a SNPA the other night and thought "THIS is beer!" I'll try a second bottle at two weeks and every week after.
My OG was 1.048
