Bottled my first brew

[mmmipa80]

I tasted some of my beer while I was bottling it and it was very bitter and not much malty taste.Could it be that I bioled all the malt taste away? I boiled for like 65 minutes,because I forgot when I started my boil.



Thanks

You're fine. Hops are at their most strong right after boiling. They'll mellow with time. Once the hops mellow, the maltiness will come through.

Put those bottles away for three weeks and get on to your next batch.

Congrats on your first batch of beer. :rockin:
