I know it might sound strange, but I bought a bottle of Dogfish Head Golden Showers off Ebay. When I opened it, it smelled just like Chef Boyardi Ravioli's. I thought, must be from the long aging, the smell will dissipate. I was wrong. Even My wife who doesn't drink beer, agreed that it smelled exactly like the Chef. She refused to even try it. When I tried it, the after taste was like when you where 18, drank a 18 pack of bad beer, came home late at night to micro some Chef, then the belches you got afterword, The exact same taste. I actually poured it back into the bottle to give to some beer geek friends as a joke. But that got me to thinking, what went wrong? Did:
a, the beer was really that bad to begin with.
b, it did have a yeast sediment, autolysis.
c. Poor Storage
d. Did the guy pou out the beer and reseal it with some crap he brewed. You can buy the caps online.
Abolutely horrible. The reason I posted here is I want to really know what may have happened, anyone ever experiened this before?
