So i just dumped out 44 bottles of a franziskaner weissbier clone after letting it carb up for 3 months. I tried a bottle here and there and it never really tasted great.
so tonight I chilled a bottle, tasted it and realized that I must have either had a really poor efficiency(I split a 10 gallon batch with a former brew partner) or if just fermented too cold and didn't ferment out.
Its a sad sad thing. Its sitting in a bucket waiting to be poured on the compost bin to spice up the lives of the worms and microbes there.
there is another batch on the same yeast cake that was used for this bad batch so I hope its replacement will prove a better beer.
edit: it tasted like a really weak light beer. I never checked the sg on the batch so no fg reading.
I need a refractometer.
