Just tried my first HB last night. It was an English Brown Ale made from a Brewer's Best kit. Kinda fumbled the fermentation, but didn't hurt the beer. Had a 10 days in the primary, 5 in the secondary, and when I tasted it was on it's 8th day in bottles. Random numbers, I know, but I was confused about some things that I cleared up by reading posts here (love this site).
But I digress... About the beer. It was good! Still a bit green which I expected. Only odd thing I noticed was that it was more carbonated than I figured it would be and completely lacking head. From what I'd read I was expecting the opposite. I'm going to let it condition for for another couple weeks before enjoying it en masse, but I'll be testing again in a week.
Any thoughts on the lack of head?
