I brewed an all extract kit (brown ale) that I picked up at the LHBS. I kept it in primary for 2 weeks until I got steady FG readings for 4 days in a row. I then transferred it to secondary for 3 more weeks. (It was kind of cloudy) After that, I kegged it and carbonated it and let it sit for two more weeks. I tasted it for the first time today and I was impressed with the flavor. Good head and retention. Pretty good for a first go I thought.
The problem is, is that it doesn't "feel" like it's carbed at all. It kinda feels like flavored water, if you know what I mean.
Is this an extract issue? Is it a green beer issue? Will it get better with age?
Any help would be appreciated.
